In the next few days, Qiantai stayed in the garden every day to read and write in a low-key manner, accompanied his mother to live in the garden, and at night Qiantai meditated and practiced.

In this way, two or three days passed, and the trip to Mount Tai in the court also came to an end.

On this morning, after Qiantai was convinced, he read aloud in the study room of the side hall, and there was a maid standing beside him, the eldest grandson of the maid, with red sleeves and fragrance, which had a unique taste.

Half a morning after reading the book, Qiantai asked the maid to take out the villain that she had cut out of brown paper these days, and take some silk sticks and stick them with batter.

The eldest grandson Wujian was curious to do something for Qiantai, she asked His Highness what he was doing with these villains, and His Royal Highness told her that she was doing shadow puppetry, for the sake of his wife's birthday, and asked everyone to keep it secret.

These little figures have been made for two days, and they are almost finished today. The eldest grandson looked at His Royal Highness, the heir of his own emperor, who could kill people and be these paper figures at a young age, but he was not like an eight-year-old child.

At noon, Yu Yao and Qianming ran excitedly all the way to Qianxi Garden, and Qiantai asked the two if they had memorized their lines. The two children looked at this little man with novelty, and nodded that they had already memorized it.

At noon, Yanyue Xiunu brought a little palace maid to ask Qiantai for dinner, but saw Qiantai and the four of them mysteriously coming out of the study. "What did you do in the study?" asked Qiantai's mother.

"No, auntie, we are asking the nineteenth brother to tell us about the counterinsurgency in Yecheng. "Haven't you already said it, how can you say it again, Tai'er, although you have made great contributions, but you are also blessed by the emperor, you must not be proud, you can't always talk about a little credit, you have to study hard with Yuyao and them." ”

"It's my mother, the child has been reading this morning, and then I just rested with Yuyao and them. "Innocent, His Highness has been reading in the house early this morning. "Yes, ma'am. ”

"Alright, that's good. Let's all go to eat, I went to the imperial dining room for you to get your favorite fruit crisp, it just so happens that Yu Yao and Qianming are here, you can try it together, see if it is delicious, if it is delicious, I will let people get more next time. ”

"Oh, I finally have something to eat, I'm hungry all morning, and Brother Nineteen always asks people to repeat one thing. ”

"Little princess. The eldest grandson reminded in a low voice.

"Well, nothing, auntie, I mean Brother Nineteen always asks me to read the same poem. ”

"Wuji, you can also eat some, there are only us in Qianxi Garden, don't care too much about these courtesies. "Yanyue Xiunu and charitable.

"The slave didn't dare. ”

"Wuji, sit down, although you are my maid, but you are only in the Qianxi Garden, there is usually no one here, and it is not in the way. ”

After eating, he drank fragrant tea, and saw that Qiantai quickly stopped Yanyue Xiunu, who was about to pack up her things, and made a color to Yu Yao and Qianming, and the three little grinned and hurriedly rushed into the study of the side hall.

The show girl looked at the strange behavior of today's child in confusion. Qiantai said to Yanyue Xiunu: "Mother, today is your birthday, how can you forget?"

Qiantai pulled Yanyue Xiunu outside the hall and said, "Thinking of the children who worry about their mothers these days, the children have prepared a small gift these days, and I want to show them to my mother, and let my mother celebrate this birthday, I will be happy, and I will be able to live a long and healthy life in the future, and I will always be able to worry about Tai'er." ”

Coming to the outside of the hall, at this time, the three children had already pulled out a white curtain outside, and the little eunuchs, palace maids, guards Qianzhige, and Qianzang Bow had already prepared tables and chairs outside.

Qiantai arranged Yanyue Xiunu on the seat, quickly trotted behind the white cloth, and nodded to Yu Yao, Qianming, and Changsun Wuji, who were already ready in the back. The eldest grandson came to open the curtain, and Qiantai sang first: "In the seventh month of the year, my mother's birthday, sing a shadow puppet show to help my mother live a long and healthy life, and stay young forever." ”

"Puxian Kong An Birthday Celebration", thirty-three heavens and heavens, immortals come out of the white clouds, immortals are mortals, I am afraid that mortals are not strong, I am afraid that mortals are not strong、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、, a drama sings all over Kong An to celebrate his birthday, but it makes the eyes of the Yanyue Xiunu in the audience red, and surprise, relief, and joy are congested in my heart. There were two guards standing behind him, and the little eunuch was also smiling, and all of them quietly watched the four voices singing behind the white curtain.

As early as a few days ago, after Qiantai came back, he thought that his mother's birthday was approaching, and he had the heart to celebrate his mother's birthday, after all, his mother was the only person who came to this world to miss him the most.

When Qiantai thought about it, he felt that giving gifts could not express his feelings, and he had the intention to make things more lively, but there were generally troupes outside the palace that were not allowed to enter the palace unless approved by the queen.

No, Qiantai remembered the shadow puppet show in his previous life, and these days, every morning after reading, Qiantai would take some time out to make shadow puppets with the help of his eldest grandson.

Qiantai also joined the little eunuch, the palace maid, the two guards, and invited Yu Yao and Qianming to complete this matter together, just to make the usually quiet Qianxi Garden have more surprises and joy.

Qiantai asked Qianming and Yuyao to memorize the words, and at noon today in the study of the side hall, they taught the two how to pull the silk threads of these villains to do all kinds of actions, and also taught the eldest grandson Wujian how to pull the curtain call.

.......................................... Mother's longevity and health. Qiantai finally sang loudly, and a shadow puppet show of birthday greetings had been sung until the end of the afternoon, but time passed quickly.

Qiantai said a congratulatory speech, kicked off the play, and several people appeared on the high platform, in which Qiantai looked sincerely at the tearful Yanyue Xiunu in the audience.

"Mother, are you still happy to see this gift prepared by the child?"

"What kind of shadow puppetry, who let you do this, as a prince, you have to study hard and pay attention to your manners......" As she spoke, Yanyue Xiunu, who was going to reprimand Qiantai, couldn't continue, stretched out her hand and grabbed Qiantai, tears fell from her eyes, and said: "My mother likes it, Tai'er's gift to my mother, my mother likes it......"

Saying that, the show girl cried again, but quickly stopped her tears, with such a child, which mother doesn't like it.

"Oh... , Aunt Yanyue cried, Aunt Yanyue also cried, or my shadow was good. ”

"Eighteenth Imperial Sister, this is dedicated to Aunt Yanyue by Nineteenth Brother. Qianming corrected.

"What, obviously this shadow puppet is not as good as me, I don't believe we can let Aunt Yanyue say it. "Little princess, the little princess of the shadow puppet show is good, but Her Royal Highness sings well, and this shadow puppet show is still thought up by His Royal Highness for his wife." ”

"You are looking at your Royal Highness, at a young age, you are seducing the young master, oh, I know, you must have fallen in love with my nineteenth emperor brother, so you will be admitted to the palace and live here." ”

"Yu Yao. Qiantai had to pat his head on the side to stop the little princess.

"What, you're talking nonsense. The eldest grandson Wujian anxiously stopped the little princess's words, lowered his head aggrievedly, but wisely did not say anything more.

The little princess looked up proudly, and was quite proud of revealing the eldest grandson's thoughts on the nineteenth emperor's brother in one fell swoop.

On the side, Yanyue Xiunu, whose eyes were red, was laughed at by a few people, and looked at the lovely eldest grandson Wujian on the side, and saw that the cheeks of the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl were red.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

Qiantai accompanied his mother on his birthday, and lived a leisurely life with his mother in the Qianxi Garden.

Qiantai also went with his mother to the back garden to meet Concubine Zhen, in the back garden, Qiantai was held by his mother and listened to the chatter of the three women. At the same time, Qianming was taken by his mother, and the little princess Yuyao chased butterflies in the garden, laughing and laughing.

Concubine Zhen said that Qiantai made meritorious service this time, and the emperor had the heart to reward Yanyue Xiunu as Jieyu, so she invited the Xiunu to ** to celebrate with Liu Jieyu in advance, and notified Yanyue Xiunu.

Concubine Zhen also said with Liu Jieyu that she envied that Yan Yuexiu had a good child, but fortunately, Qiantai had a good relationship with Yuyao and Qianming, and they could take care of each other in the future. After returning from Concubine Zhen, Concubine Zhen also gave Yanyue Xiunu a lot of silk and rouge, and sent eunuchs to Qianxi Garden.

Everyone in the Qianxi Garden went to the garden, only the little maid eldest grandson Wujian cleverly stayed in the garden to guard, and when she returned, it was unthinkable that the little maid's move was accepted by the little princess Yuyao, and when she returned, she also brought her shortbread made by Concubine Zhen.

That night, the eunuch Cao passed the decree, and Yan Yuexiu taught her son a good way, knew etiquette and kept morality, and was promoted to Jieyu by the queen's decree.

This matter really made Qiantai happy, and from then on, her mother Yanyue Xiunu is no longer the lowest level of the show girl who has no name and no surname, and she no longer has to be called by no one when she enters and exits Qianxi Garden. Subsequently, the eunuch Cao, who came to Qianxi Garden repeatedly, brought a few eunuch show girls again, and a few large internal guards were stationed outside Qianxi Garden, and they sent people to clean up the decorations and pawns of Qianxi Garden.

In the following days, Qiantai stayed in Qianxi Garden, slowly practicing qi and reading every day, while patiently waiting for the arrival of the edict of the official ministry that he officially entered the court.
