Chapter 598 Don't give up, repeat the old trick
The next thing is to present the birthday gift, which should be presented from the son, the eldest prince has passed away, and the second prince will take the lead.

Xin Ruo is very interested in these things given to the emperor, because all rare things are most likely to be presented.

For such a big day as the emperor's birthday, as long as you can win the emperor's smile or take a look at the birthday gift, and keep it in mind, your career and official career will be prosperous in the future.

So they are all willing to spend their money, but there is a limit, and they can't give people the feeling of being too extravagant, otherwise they will get hooked with corrupt officials, and the gains outweigh the losses.

What the second prince gave was a book, Xin Ruo didn't know what book it was, but he was very happy, and after complimenting the second prince, the third prince and the third concubine followed.

It was the first time for Xin Ruo to see it, and it was really good, because the three princes don't compete for power, and they can't be too conspicuous, they just want the emperor to be a little satisfied, so the gift is more ordinary.

Then it will take turns, so I won't talk about them one by one, but there is one that has to be mentioned, and that is the Thirteenth Prince.

The thirteenth prince personally held a birthday gift to the emperor to celebrate his birthday, and said, "I will present my most precious things to my father, and I wish my father a blessing like the long flowing water of the East Sea, and a life that is not as old as Nanshan."

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard it, and said with a smile, "Luoer's most precious thing, Father, please take a good look at it."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the close father-in-law went down to take the brocade box of the thirteenth prince, opened it, and looked, isn't it the most precious thing, the glazed inkstone.

Xin Ruo stared directly below, a little confused, the thirteenth prince was willing to pay 10 taels of silver for the glazed inkstone, why did he give it to the emperor?
The price of the colored glaze was right there, and when the colored glaze inkstone came out, many people below sighed.

All the previous birthday gifts were suppressed, and the emperor didn't understand, "Luoer is willing to give up such a treasure?"

The thirteenth prince looked at the emperor with his mouth puffed up, "Father said that, but I think my son is stingy."

The queen glared at the thirteenth prince, but the emperor over there laughed loudly, "I am satisfied with your filial piety.

If you don't have a satisfactory inkstone and you can't write, Song Taifu will have a headache again. Turn around and use this inkstone to write a poem to your father as a birthday gift. "

After the emperor said, he gave the inkstone to the father-in-law, and the father-in-law took it down and gave it to the thirteenth prince. The thirteenth prince was pouting, but the second prince came up and dragged him down.

It just took a round like this, and the thirteenth prince's was more fun. Xin Ruo didn't seem interested in the rest. Xin Ruo looked at Zhan Moyu, "Sir, what did the palace give you?"

Zhan Moyu raised his brows, the prince over there had already stood up, Xin Ruo and Zhan Moyu also wanted a piece, and saw that the prince sent a small box, which was very ordinary, and there was nothing special about it.

It can also be said that its most outstanding feature is that it is too ordinary, and the emperor was also curious, so he asked his father-in-law to go down and pick it up.

Looking at the rice in the box, the emperor blinked his eyes, looked at the prince, and the prince said, "This is rice from Tongnan and Tongbei. This year is a bumper harvest for Dayu."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and picked up the rice to look at it. The queen on the side said that the curving ears of rice seemed to be paying homage to the emperor's birthday, and the emperor was very happy.

Looking at the prince, he deliberately turned his face and said, "I am quite satisfied with this birthday gift, but it is too little, not enough to cook a bowl of rice."

The corner of Xin Ruo's mouth twitched when he heard that, Your Majesty, you are deliberately looking for faults. You are deliberately scolding on a happy day, and if you are satisfied, just say it. Compared with Da Yufeng and Yushun, what could be better.

Xin Ruo turned her head to look at the prince, but the prince didn't speak, but clapped his hands, and there were footsteps outside.

Xin Ruo glanced over, and saw a guard coming in carrying a large pile of rice, the prince smiled and said, "I knew you would pick the thorns of my ministers, this time is enough for you, the emperor, to eat for two days."

The emperor had nothing to say, he felt as if he was being eaten to death, so he waved his hand and sent someone to the imperial dining room.

In the evening, he was going to eat new rice, and all the ministers and officials over there stood up to congratulate the emperor on the harvest year and the emperor's longevity and well-being.

After the congratulations, the prince sat back to his original seat, and Xin Ruo returned to his seat to watch the show. After the congratulations here, the male duck roared, and Prince Donglie, King Su, and Emperor Beihan came to congratulate the emperor. life!
This time it's very lively, Dong Lie is a defeated country, and he has a request for Dayu, and Dayu and Beihan have an agreement, Jing Xiaoran has been here for several days, but he didn't mention half a word, too It's been incredible.

The emperor had no idea, seeing Donglie Beihan walking in side by side, the emperor frowned slightly.

Bei Han and Dong Lie each presented birthday gifts to the emperor, and the emperor gave him a seat, and then asked Jing Xiaoran if he was satisfied with living in the East Palace, Jing Xiaoran was not picky.

It's just that Jing Haoran beside him was wearing a mask that was too ostentatious. The emperor frowned and asked him what he was wearing the mask for. The last time he wore the mask was because he was beaten. What about this time?
The emperor was a little worried that he would be beaten by Zhan Moyu again, and Jing Haoran also wanted to save face, and replied, "The palace is very good, but there are more flying insects."

The emperor raised his eyebrows lightly, he didn't really believe in this reason, no matter how many flying insects there are, wouldn't there still be gauze curtains.

Since people were unwilling to reveal the real reason, the emperor didn't pursue it further, raised his glass to drink, and enjoyed the singing and dancing.

After about a quarter of an hour, the Queen opened her mouth.

Smiling, he said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, do you still remember that at the dust-receiving banquet that day, Princess Ruozhi said to present a dance to celebrate your birthday, and Ling Rong had mentioned to the concubine that she would perform a dance with the princess on the same stage. "

The queen's voice was not low, the singing and dancing in the hall had stopped, many ministers knew it well, probably because of Mr. Banyue's matter, Princess Lingrong was arrogant and took a fancy to Mr. Banyue.

However, Mr. Banyue used Prince Funing's Shizifei as an excuse, and almost killed Shizifei that time, and even caused her to lose the title of princess.

Now that Princess Ruozhi of Beihan wants Young Master Ban Yue to be her son-in-law, I'm afraid there will be trouble.

Xin Ruo sighed when she heard this, there are battlefields everywhere, it's meaningless to fight, no matter who wins, Master Ban Yue won't be hers, why bother.

Xin Ruo turned her head and looked at Zhan Moyu. Zhan Moyu was drinking and didn't speak. He just glanced at Xin Ruo with his eyes, and before Xin Ruo opened his mouth, he said, "It's nothing to do with your husband."

Xin Ruo still wanted to make a bet with him to see who would win, but he was afraid that he would not be interested, so Xin Ruo had no choice but to give up.

Over there, Princess Ruozhi stood up, bowed to the emperor, and then went out with her maid to change clothes.

A few minutes later, a sky-blue dance dress came in, and a piece of emerald tinsel dyed with gold was pasted between the eyebrows, which was gorgeous and eye-catching.

Cui tin is made of various kingfisher feathers. The overall flower tin is turquoise, with sparkling crystal points, fresh, unique, gorgeous and colorful.

On the other side, Ling Rong walked over in fiery red clothes, even the corners of his eyes were smeared with light red, the original three points of delicateness faded away, replaced by seven points of enchanting.

The visual impact made Xin Ruo feel that it was more lively than the dance party today. If Shangguan Ling hadn't left, it would have been even more lively.

The two approached face to face, and the three thousand blue hairs danced with the wind, exuding a faint fragrance.

The waist is slender, with a refined temperament like a fairy. The face is thinly covered with powder and daisy, and the face is stunning. The bead and jade are hanging around the neck, which makes the clavicle even more clear. The purple jade bracelet on the wrist sets off the snow-like skin.

A pair of gilt shoes on the feet are decorated with precious stones, with beautiful eyes and an indifferent expression.

This is Princess Ruozhi, with an enchanting mausoleum, with a coquettish and coquettish attitude in her gestures and gestures, and a smile on the corner of her mouth.

The two greeted each other, and then went forward together to pay homage to the emperor's birthday, and then began to dance.

The guests are the main ones, so Princess Lingrong asked Princess Ruozhi to dance first, that is, Princess Ruozhi chooses which dance to dance, Princess Ruozhi listened to what Princess Lingrong said, and it was not easy to refuse, so the so-called guest is up to the owner .

There was the sound of silk and bamboo, and the two of them just started, dancing gracefully and lightly.

Xin Ruo watched and admired. This dance can be divided into two parts. In the first part, Princess Ruozhi takes the lead, and in the second half, Princess Lingrong is a little better. This is also expected by Xin Ruo.

Princess Ruozhi has a gentler temperament, and Ling Rong doesn't seem like a talkative master.

If he beats her on the emperor's birthday, it has nothing to do with the emperor's face, and he will cause trouble, but he can't lose Bei Han's face, so winning half is enough.

Moreover, the dance "Admiration" she chose is also divided into two parts. The first part is about a pair of lovers falling in love with each other, and the second part is about twists and turns.

Some have changed their styles, so even if they lose a little bit, there is no trace of giving in.

With such a subtlety, Xin Ruo felt that this princess was extraordinary, and if she really fought against her, it would not be easy to win.

In this way, Dou Wu has also fought, and it can only be said that each has its own strengths.

The emperor praised both of them, they rewarded the same things, they stepped back, changed their clothes and came up, there was another burst of singing and dancing in the hall.

Xin Ruo was bored here, Zilan slipped in over there, and Fushen said to Xin Ruo, "Young Mistress, just now I saw the servant girl of the Lingrong Princess going through Princess Ruozhi's clothes and took the purse away."

Xin Ruo's eyes froze for two seconds, and the corners of her mouth twitched violently, completely speechless.

Looking at Princess Ruozhi over there, she looked a little weird, as if she was absent-minded, probably because she knew that her purse had been stolen.

Xin Ruo lightly shrugged her shoulders, Meier, Princess Ruozhi's servant girl, couldn't take it anymore, and stole things from their princess again and again, it was too much.

Mei'er took two steps forward, knelt down and begged the emperor, "Please also ask the emperor to make decisions for our princess. Our princess's most cherished purse was stolen when she was performing a dance!"

As soon as Mei'er said this, the emperor's face became a little ugly. Didn't this make it clear that there were thieves in the palace?

Many people over there began to stare at Zilan and Xin Ruo, and the previous incident was revealed again, and someone reported to the emperor what happened in the Imperial Garden.

The emperor rubbed his temples, but Xin Ruo went to see Ling Rong, Ling Rong sat there, drinking tea with nothing to do, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, Xin Ruo's brows tightened when he smiled.

A bad premonition flashed in my heart, and sure enough, Ling Rong opened his mouth, "Maybe it's because the servant girl doesn't give up, so she's going to repeat her old tricks."
