When he looked up, he saw that it was a peanut, which was a snack prepared on the table. Judging from the direction, it should have been thrown from Lin Qingran's right rear.

The corners of Lin Qingran's lips curled up slightly. She was quite courageous to do such a small gesture in front of the emperor.

Looking sideways, it turned out that it was Liu Ruyi waving to her. She hadn't found any trace of her just now. It turned out that she was hiding behind her right side. She was relatively petite, so Lin Qingran didn't notice it.

Lin Qingran smiled and then looked away. At this time, Emperor Kang Yuan had almost finished talking about the scene and was preparing for the final summary.

"I am very happy today. I believe everyone knows that the Queen has been living in seclusion during this period, but it is actually to raise the baby. Hahaha, yes, it is just as you think. The Queen is already three months pregnant, and our Tianyuan will soon add another child. Princess or prince." Emperor Kang Yuan smiled happily.

Hearing what he said, some people present must be happy and some sad.

The concubines in the harem have their teeth broken. There have been no new princes and princesses in the palace for many years, and there has been no draft for three times.

The last concubine who entered the palace was Concubine Zhen, who was still favored constantly.

Emperor Kang Yuan expressed that the border was tight, so he refused to draft the draft, saying that it would not waste the people and money. This move was approved by many ministers.

But what it actually is, and whether it is for some special reasons, I am afraid only he knows best.

Another point is that if the prince has a biological sister or brother, his status will naturally be more stable. After more than ten years, either brother or sister will be able to help him.

The younger sister can be betrothed to a suitable man, which will give her a loyal brother-in-law.

As for his younger brother, that's even better, he will definitely become his right-hand man.

The people in the palace are not stupid, most of them are human beings. They thought of these things almost at the same time, and they all have their own thoughts.

Especially concubines with children have more to think about.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you may live a thousand years!"

The entire venue was filled with cheers, and Emperor Kang Yuan's smile grew bigger and bigger.

"Hahaha, okay, there are not so many requests today. Everyone can eat and drink well, and don't worry too much about your status. You can also send gifts now. I also want to see what good things you will give to the queen. Emperor Kang Yuan said with a smile.

After hearing Emperor Kang Yuan's words, everyone present was eager to try. After all, there are two ways to give gifts, and everyone had to consider which way was more appropriate.

The first way is to present the gift in front of everyone. The advantage is that if you give it well, everyone will envy you, and you will also be rewarded by the emperor. The things the emperor rewards will naturally not be too bad.

The second way is to give it to the palace official who records it and record it directly in the book. However, in this way, no outsider will know what is being sent. Only the queen will know when she reads the gift list.

But no matter which method you use, you still need to wait and see, because someone will definitely steal the show.

Sure enough, the first person to steal the show arrived.

"Since the emperor said so, I naturally want to prepare birthday gifts for the queen. After all, she has not celebrated many birthdays. So, if I want to be the first to give a gift to the queen, it can be considered as a way to attract others. The people behind can also give gifts." Concubine Zhen covered her lips and smiled softly, turning her eyes slightly, and occasionally falling on Emperor Kang Yuan's face, giving him a knowing look. It's a pity that Emperor Kang Yuan didn't pay attention to Concubine Zhen's reaction at all. His eyes either fell on the officials below, or unconsciously fell on Empress Qi.

Lin Qingran's expression moved slightly, and there was excitement in his eyes.

[Wow, wow, wow, here it comes, it seems that Concubine Zhen is really the first one to give gifts. She is looking for death! But now I have no way to expose it, so it seems that I still have to talk to the empress in private. But in this case, it became that the empress was not satisfied with the gift given by Concubine Zhen, and it was inappropriate. 】

[And if the problem is found out after being sent to Kunning Palace, it will not be easy to explain clearly what happened under Guatianli. It will also be a troublesome matter. As long as you leave your hands and find the things, you will be framed. It is said that the empress is jealous that Concubine Zhen is favored by the big pig's hooves and cannot tolerate the favor of the concubine, so she does this deliberately. 】

[Damn, this is not easy to operate. If the conflict between Big Pig Hotter and the Empress deepens, won’t I also be disliked by Big Pig Hoof? No, we must find a way to prevent this from happening. Neither the child in the mother's belly nor her reputation can tolerate any problems! 】

Only Xiao Heng heard Lin Qingran's thoughts among the people present. The other people may have been a little far away, or the surrounding sounds were too noisy and they didn't pay attention.

In short, Xiao Heng heard Lin Qingran's inner thoughts clearly. He picked up the wine glass and put it to his lips, blocking the corners of his mouth that were about to rise.

To be so concerned about Lin Qingran, it seemed that she didn't have any feelings for him.

It's just that she just has to watch the show, and she doesn't need to worry about the rest.

Emperor Kang Yuan didn't know about the twists and turns of the women in the harem, and he really thought that Concubine Zhen was just here to show off, and of course he didn't care.

"I didn't expect that my concubine would still have such a heart. Okay, since my concubine wants to give the queen a gift, of course I will not refuse." Emperor Kang Yuan smiled and looked at Queen Qi, "Queen, concubine Zhen has prepared a gift for you. I guess it’s not too bad, I just don’t know if you like it or not.”

[No, right? Does Big Pig Hoof really have no brains at all? Asking the concubine if she likes the gift in front of the wife, how should she respond? If she says she doesn't like her, it means that the wife is jealous and has made seven mistakes. If you like it, look at it every day and remind yourself that this is a gift from your husband’s concubine, and you will be happy if you can. And according to the empress's temperament, she will definitely still say that she likes it, and she may be very angry! 】

Xiao Heng pursed his lips and glanced at Concubine Zhen unkindly. Concubine Zhen was so excited that she didn't notice Xiao Heng's expression at all.

Empress Qi smiled gently, "I like it of course. Sister Zhen Fei will definitely give me the best gift. I'm very considerate."

"What are you talking about? As long as your Majesty is happy, Fei Chen's hard work in choosing my concubine is not in vain." Concubine Zhen smiled happily, and then ordered the maid next to her, "Go and present the congratulatory gift I gave to your Majesty."

"Yes." The palace maid agreed and walked towards Queen Qi with the tray in her hand.

The maid's tray was covered with red silk cloth. Nothing could be seen from the outside, but it looked quite gorgeous.

Concubine Zhen was very proud, with a cold flash in her eyes.

Lin Qingran was so anxious that her eyes couldn't help but fall on Xiao Heng.

The next moment, Xiao Heng stood up.
