"The concubine heard that the emperor took the queen to the peach forest in the West Mountain today, and gave the queen a peach forest, and thought that it would be the queen's birthday after that, so it would be better to hold a birthday banquet for the queen in the peach garden. Qiao Yindi said with a smile.

To say that this Qiao Yindi has done a lot of work on face at this time, even if she is jealous in her heart, she also shows that she wants to rack her brains to make Xu Lianyi happy.

Mu Yunting didn't expect Qiao Yindi to be so generous now, knowing that getting along well with Xu Lianyi, and going to Taoyuan to hold a banquet is indeed a good choice, he smiled heartily and said, "Okay! This proposal is good!"

This Taoyuan was given to Xu Lianyi, Xu Lianyi was naturally happy, although she was not used to seeing Qiao Yindi, but if a banquet was held in Taoyuan, she would be happy.

"Presumably the queen also agrees with this proposal, right?" Qiao Yindi looked at Xu Lianyi and said.

Xu Lianyi nodded and said, "Naturally." ”

However, things were not as good as Mu Yunting expected, although the harem really wanted the banquet to be held in Taoyuan, but after this matter reached the court, some ministers were not happy.

"Your Majesty, please think twice! If you really go to that peach orchard, it will be extravagant and wasteful, and the people will not say that the emperor is mediocre and only puts his mind on the harem!" A minister said very earnestly, he resolutely resisted making a big deal for Xu Lianyi.

Mu Yunting didn't expect that someone would stop him, and he suddenly felt unhappy, and retorted: "I have always done things in a measured manner, but now I am just holding a banquet for the queen, and where is the luxury and waste, if it is really as serious as you said, I don't have to deal with my birthday in the future!"

"The emperor is the Ninety-Five, how can he be compared!" Another minister couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly said.

As soon as Mu Yunting heard this, Long Yan was furious: "What does it mean that it can't be compared! The queen is the mother of a country, isn't her identity noble enough, and she has to have your consent to celebrate her birthday! It's simply ridiculous!"

"Back to the emperor, the minister didn't say that he couldn't celebrate the queen's birthday, but he couldn't go to Taoyuan to do it!" This minister is going to fight with Mu Yunting, in short, he just doesn't agree with Xu Lianyi's Taoyuan banquet.

Mu Yunting had felt a little guilty about Xu Lianyi because of the affairs of the harem before, and now he finally saw Xu Lianyi so happy and looking forward to it, how could he let Xu Lianyi wait for so long in vain, since he promised that Xu Lianyi would go to Taoyuan, he would naturally pass.

"Well, I've made up my mind, so you don't have to say it anymore. Mu Yunting breathed a sigh of relief and said.

The ministers wanted to say something more, but Mu Yunting had already announced his retirement from the court, and some wanted to chase Mu Yunting over, but they were also stopped by Mu Yunting's guards.

After Ouyang Jing heard about this, he also felt that Xu Lianyi was really a little inappropriate, so he thought about entering the palace to persuade Xu Lianyi. Now Xu Lianyi is indeed a little fluttering because of Mu Yunting's favor, although Ouyang Jing loves his daughter very much, but he doesn't want her to be infamous because of this.

"Mother's visit this time is because of Taoyuan?" Xu Lianyi knew why she came over when she saw Ouyang Jing coming, and said preemptively, "The emperor has promised me to hold a birthday banquet in Taoyuan, so I can't break my promise, right?"

"It's not a matter of breaking your word, now the court is impeaching you for going to Taoyuan, don't you hear any rumors, now the emperor is caught in the middle, but he is biased towards you everywhere, how do you let the emperor serve the public?" Ouyang Jing persuaded Xu Lianyi bitterly.

How could Xu Lianyi listen to these at this time, it was enough for her to know that Mu Yunting was biased towards her now, and she obviously disagreed with Ouyang Jing's statement: "But it's just a banquet, even if it's in the palace, it has to be prepared, why didn't you listen to them say this before?"

"If you were in the palace, maybe you wouldn't be like this, it's always different to go to that peach orchard. Ouyang Jing looked at his daughter like this, knowing that he couldn't say it clearly anyway.

After all, Xu Lianyi was a little fluttering with Mu Yunting's favor.

"Mother, you can rest assured, since the emperor has promised me, naturally there will be no problems, what is the difference between being in the palace and in Taoyuan, I think those ministers just have nothing to do. Xu Lianyi pursed her lips and said, she naturally heard those rumors.

"You must know that you are the queen, the mother of a country and the master of the harem, and you should lead by example. Ouyang Jing said slowly, now Xu Lianyi is indeed a little pampered and arrogant, Ouyang Jing naturally doesn't want Xu Lianyi to become like this.

Xu Lianyi didn't expect Ouyang Jing to stop her like this, and she felt a little uncomfortable, but after all, Ouyang Jing was also her mother, and she couldn't say anything, but she still insisted on going to Taoyuan to hold a birthday party.

Ouyang Jing saw Xu Lianyi's insistence, and Mu Yunting didn't let go, so he had to give up.

And at this time, it was also because Xu Lianyi was about to celebrate her birthday, so Lu Jingyao was also released to take charge of Xu Lianyi's meals.

Mama Li knew that Lu Jingyao had been framed before, so she immediately went to find her after Lu Jingyao came out.

"What do you have to tell Mama Li?" Lu Jingyao is very careful now, for fear that there will be another accident if she is not careful.

Mama Li looked around at no one and advised: "Someone deliberately put things in your package before, framing them, and you must be more careful in the future." ”

"Mama Xie Li mentioned it, I know. Lu Jingyao was originally framed, but she didn't know how to explain it, and now that someone finally told her the truth, she was naturally grateful to Mama Li, but she also knew better that the next days would not be so good, and she needed to be more cautious.

Mama Li knew that Lu Jingyao was loyal to Xu Lianyi, so she would say so much now to mention Lu Jingyao.

On the day of the banquet, everyone gathered in the peach orchard, the peach blossoms fluttered all over the sky, and the sound of silk and bamboo music surrounded the entire peach orchard, and everyone was not happy.

"I know that my insistence is right, if it is really much better to hold a banquet in this Taoyuan than in the palace, isn't it?" Mu Yunting looked at Xu Lianyi with a smile.

On this day, Xu Lian was dressed in a red palace dress, which attracted enough attention, and her mood was extremely happy, and she said with a smile: "It's worth it if you are told by those ministers, anyway, we are here now." ”

Qiao Yindi looked at the two of them smiling and Yan Yan and felt a little dazzling, so she came over and said: "The concubine wishes the queen a happy birthday, and she will be more affectionate with the emperor in the future." ”

No matter how you listen to this, it's not sincere, but today is a good day for Xu Lianyi, so I don't want to worry so much about Qiao Yindi, so I ...... and Mu Yunting are more affectionate.

The red spots on Qiao Jingyuan's face had also receded at this time, and she was dressed as a fan, shuttling between the peach blossom forests as if she had also become a peach blossom.

"Queen Mother, is the concubine okay with this dress?" Qiao Jingyuan stood in front of Xu Lianyi and said, taking advantage of Xu Lianyi's boldness today, he dared to do this.

Xu Lianyi nodded and said, "This peach blossom is not as beautiful as Qiao Jieyu." ”

"Queen Xie. Qiao Jingyuan said.

Then many concubines in the harem performed to Mu Yunting and Xu Lianyi, which was really beautiful. There were even some unfavored concubines who wanted to take advantage of this time to attract Mu Yunting's attention, but there was only one Xu Lianyi in Mu Yunting's eyes, which also made the harem concubines present very jealous.

"The queen seems to be a fairy today, and if the emperor really sees only the mother alone!" Ruan Xiaohong presented a congratulatory gift to Xu Lianyi, and did not forget to praise him.

Xu Lianyi accepted any compliments at this time, and when she heard Ruan Xiaohong say this, she was even happier in her heart, what she always wanted was that Mu Yunting was the only one in her heart. Mu Yunting seemed to know what Xu Lianyi was thinking, so he looked towards Xu Lianyi, and it happened that Xu Lianyi was also looking at Mu Yunting, and the two looked at each other, full of affection.

Qiao Yindi looked at all these things on the side, although she knew that Xu Lianyi was a birthday star today, so she would be held by the stars, but she still couldn't stand it.

"Your Majesty, the Queen's Mother, the concubines also toast you. Qiao Yindi picked up her wine glass and said, just interrupting Mu Yunting and Xu Lianyi's look.

Xu Lianyi was a little unhappy in her heart, but after all, happiness is the main thing, and Qiao Yindi also wanted to toast to them, so she suppressed the discomfort in her heart, picked up the wine glass in front of her with a smile, and said: "Today's birthday in the palace, naturally the harem celebrates together!"

After that, Qiao Yindi danced for Xu Lianyi, which was out of the limelight, and was praised by Mu Yunting - this alone is enough.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has never had such a happy birthday, thanks to you, the concubine knows that you have a lot of troubles about this, and the concubines also know the words of the ministers, but you still insist on it for the concubine's own selfish desires, and the concubine respects you. ”

This sentence was said by Xu Lianyi in a low voice to Mu Yunting, with affection and guilt, she naturally knew how much trouble the banquet had brought to Mu Yunting, but she just didn't want to admit it.

Mu Yunting was very relieved to hear Xu Lianyi's words, and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp and said: "I just want you to be happy, no matter what, you are my most beloved person." It's just a banquet, and if you can't do that, how can I give you what you want?"

It was at this time that Lu Jingyao discovered that there was a sneaky little palace maid in the kitchen, and this palace maid was called Qin'er.

Lu Jingyao saw that there seemed to be something in Qin'er's hand, and wanted to put it in the imperial wine, so she wanted to go out to stop it, but she didn't expect that she felt a pain in the back of her head just when she was about to go out, and she fainted at that time.
