On this day, the Holy Birthday Festival has finally arrived.

The Queen Mother did not live in the palace during this time, but lived in the southeast of the palace, in a royal garden with hot springs, Qianlong Villa, which is not only a warmer residence in winter, but also a summer resort.

Early in the morning, on the way from Qianlong Villa to the palace, there are eunuchs who sprinkle water to clean the street, and then pave a long red carpet, and many performance stages are built along the road on both sides of the road, providing folk artists to perform on stage, which not only allows the queen mother to feast her eyes along the way, but also allows the people in Beijing to watch the ceremony and celebrate.

Guozijian, Guozixue, and Gongxue have all been on vacation, although Fu Yuchen has removed the splint on his leg, and even has been able to walk for a short time, but his leg is still a little weak, and it is inconvenient to travel far, so he has to stay in Qingtong Courtyard to recuperate.

Fu Xuechen was able to use Fu Yuchen's identity to play on the street together at the invitation of Zhang Chuyang and Guan Enming, two friends, and experience this festival celebrated together.

Fu Xuechen looked at the red paper lanterns hanging on the trees along the street, as well as the festive lanterns hung by the shops on the street, and only felt as if the future generations were reflected in the present world, as if he had entered the ancient film and television city, wearing Hanfu and traveling.

It feels really great! It's just that this set of Hanfu on the body is unfortunately men's clothing, and there is a mobile phone missing.

Fu Xuechen and the three of them obviously came out late, and when they appeared on the main road, the red carpet on the ground had been put away, and the queen mother had been welcomed back to the palace by the emperor and his close ministers early in the morning.

But the platform built on the side of the road is still there, and all kinds of performances are still going on, no matter which platform is full of people, seeing the highlights, applauding, and throwing all kinds of rewards on the stage from time to time.

In the streets and alleys, there are also a lot of food on sale, and there are many people in almost every food shop, either laughing loudly, or burying their heads in eating, and there are many children, holding snacks in their hands and wandering around.

"It's so lively! It seems that the people of the whole capital have run out! Fu Xuechen sighed.

Guan Enming was holding five or six skewers of barbecue in his hand, gnawing on his mouth full of oil, and he didn't have time to talk, Zhang Chuyang was better, he liked sweets, and he was chewing half a sugar gourd at the moment, and he just smiled when he heard the words: "It's not!" ”

The three of them stopped at the periphery of a performance stage at this moment, where a monkey show was being performed, and several monkeys in clothes were doing somersaults, performing the scene of stealing peaches and offering birthdays, because it attracted children, almost thirty percent of the people around this stage were children, following the monkeys' performances and making noise.

Later generations paid attention to the protection of animals, almost all animal performances were banned, even Fu Xuechen had never seen such an interesting monkey show, and he stayed here excitedly for most of the day, and finally lost a reward money.

Guan Enming said: "I heard that there are already people arranging monkey shows that make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, but it's a pity that the Journey to the West script came out too late, otherwise there will definitely be related monkey shows on this stage, and the plot will be more exciting!" ”

Let the real monkey perform Journey to the West? Fu Xuechen is looking forward to it, but unfortunately not yet, although the new script sales in the bookstore are hot, and the word of mouth has spread, even the teahouse, theater and other storytellers' places have already had many storytellers who have begun to foam at the mouth to talk about the new script, but it will take time to reach the level of national knowledge.

In addition, there is a special stage for performing tricks, which is also very attractive to Fu Xuechen, magic is a performance, as long as the insider techniques are not exposed, how to look at it.

In addition, there are operas from all over the world, such as Kunqu Opera, Yue Opera, Cantonese Opera, and Huangmei Opera! How else to say that the first good capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven! The capital is home to a variety of talents from all over the world, and everyone tries their best to rely on their own skills to make a living, so the life knowledge of the people in the capital is naturally colorful.

At noon, the three of them were tired of shopping, and went straight to a teahouse, and asked for a small private room to drink tea and eat snacks and rest and listen to books.

The teahouse is three stories high, and when you look out of the window, you can see a corner of the eaves of Miyagi in the distance.

At this time, the six princes should all kowtow to the Queen Mother, offer birthday gifts, and start enjoying the palace banquet, right? Fu Xuechen couldn't help but guess, I don't know if the ivory mahjong tiles sent by the concubine can be liked by the Queen Mother?

In the palace, the birthday celebration is still under the auspices of the ceremonial officer in accordance with the predetermined process, at this moment it is the turn of the fourth prince Yu Zhen, he unexpectedly presented a song "Hundred Birds to the Phoenix" as a congratulatory gift, the queen with a smile, nodded approvingly, and the queen next to her also smiled, but her eyes were a little light.

The fifth prince didn't think about it so much, his mother's position and grace were not obvious, he didn't dare to come out blindly, but he just presented a congratulatory message as usual, saying that it was carved by himself, and the literary talent was still there.

It was the turn of the sixth prince, Yu Zuo, who was wearing a red small dragon pattern narrow-sleeved military robe, a golden belt around his waist, and a smile that showed eight white teeth. May the royal grandmother live a long life and enjoy a happy family forever! ”

The Queen Mother was immediately happy: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Xiao Zuo'er, where is your congratulatory gift? ”

Yu Zuo got up and said, "Grandma Huang! The grandson learned a new song and made a special trip to sing it with the imperial grandmother. ”

"Yo! Can you sing? The Queen Mother was surprised that she was actually a little interested.

At the signal of the ceremonial officer, the musician outside immediately played a very festive prelude, Yu Zuo had already made up his mind, and as soon as the node arrived, he immediately waved his hands and sang the Cantonese birthday song: "Grandma Huang!" I wish you a blessed life and a happy birthday, every year has today, every year has today, every year has today, I wish you! Congratulations! ”

The song was very short, but the Queen Mother was stunned, and on her kind face, she couldn't help but show a little surprise and nostalgia.

"Xiao Zuo'er! Come close! The Queen Mother hurriedly stretched out her hand to beckon.

Yu Zuo stepped forward and was taken into the arms of the Queen Mother and gave her a loving hug.

"Xiao Zuo'er, you have a heart! It's hard for you to learn such a difficult hometown dialect for your grandmother, and grandma likes it very much! Your congratulatory gift is so much to grandma's heart! The Queen Mother praised again and again.

Seeing that the Queen Mother liked his congratulatory gift so much, Yu Zuo was very happy, but he was also a little ashamed and said: "Grandma Huang, my grandson is lazy and stupid, and I have only learned these few words." ”

The Queen Mother laughed: "Enough, enough!" That's enough! ”

The process still has to continue, Yu Zuo is favored by the Queen Mother again, and after a few words of gossip, he can only stand aside and watch the Seventh Prince and Princess Zhiling continue to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday.

The Seventh Prince gave a handwritten Shoulian, and Princess Zhiling sent a hand-drawn picture of a pine crane. They are all regular gifts that can be given by underage juniors, and they are not as ingenious as Yu Zuo.

That guy Yuchen, the ghost idea is really different from ordinary people! Yu Zuo couldn't help but think of Fu Xuechen who came up with the idea for him, and he was not a descendant, otherwise he would have used "brain-opening" to describe the other party.

It is now noon, and the birthday celebrations and palace banquets of the harem concubines and court ladies are arranged in the evening, and the congratulatory gifts of Xie Guifei and others will also be presented in public at that time.

The chic mahjong tiles, the royal grandmother who often plays leaf cards is estimated to like it very much, but I don't know, what will be the congratulatory gift from the Fu family? Could there be a ghost idea from Yuchen? Yu Zuo guessed in his heart.
