Chapter 506: A Birthday Gift for the Emperor (3)
"Father, how can your son compare to you?" Yang Yan flattered him solemnly.

The emperor was very happy, he nodded to his son and praised: "You don't need to belittle yourself, Hua En has already told Father Emperor that you handled the government affairs well a few days ago."

Yang Yan covered his mouth and whispered: "Father, you don't know that reviewing memorials consumes the most energy. My son is so tired every day. He falls asleep after dinner. My son plans to give you a new one next year." grandson's..."

The emperor pointed at Yang Yan and scolded with a smile: "You are such a big man, and you are not in shape yet!" But after laughing, he said seriously, "You are not yet 30 years old, how can you do this? You have to make up for it." ..."

Director Hua En looked at the emperor from afar and smiled, feeling relieved in his heart.That is to say, His Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess can make the Emperor happy.

Yang Yan has studied the emperor's mind extremely thoroughly.

No emperor is willing to hand over power to others while alive, even if this other is his own son.Now, the father is in a bad mood and in poor health, so he is temporarily asked to help review the memorials and take care of government affairs.But if Yang Yan is greedy for power and refuses to give back this right, even the best father-son relationship will create a rift.

At noon, the emperor had dinner in Concubine Hui's palace, and Concubine Hui specially invited Concubine Fang over.The two served the emperor like sisters, which made the emperor feel that Concubine Hui was virtuous and loved her even more.

In the afternoon, the emperor and Concubine Hui went to Dongnuang Pavilion for an afternoon nap, An Ran and Concubine Fang talked about their recent paintings in Xinuang Pavilion, and Yang Yan and Chief Hua En went to ask about the banquet in the evening.

In the bedroom, the emperor took off his outer clothes and lay down on the warm kang, closed his eyes, but did not fall asleep immediately.Concubine Hui helped the emperor tuck in the quilt, and lay softly beside the emperor, without saying a word.

Suddenly, the emperor asked, "How do you think about that matter?"

Concubine Hui hesitated for a while, and finally came to her senses, and asked tentatively, "Is the emperor talking about ranking?"

It turned out that since the establishment of the crown prince, the emperor thought that since King Ping was established as the crown prince, then King Ping's biological mother should also be promoted to the position. The so-called mother is more expensive than the son!But there are countless positions in the harem, and they are all occupied by people, and all of them are "old people" with powerful families who have been in the palace for many years. They have hard work without credit!Even if he is an emperor, he can't downgrade others for no reason.Therefore, Concubine Hui has always been Concubine Hui.

After Lu Guifei's incident happened, the emperor directly demoted her to be a commoner. Originally, there was a vacancy for a noble concubine, but when he mentioned it earlier, both Concubine Hui and King Ping had the intention of rejecting it.

"That's all I can give you. You have to think about it carefully." The emperor also hinted that if what you want is the position of empress, it is impossible.Even if the queen has no children, it cannot be abolished easily.And speaking of it, the queen is actually a poor person.

Concubine Hui was very understanding and said excitedly: "I am very satisfied to be able to accompany the emperor in this life, and to be able to accompany the emperor for so many years. The concubine understands that the concubine was born in a humble family, and the ability of the father and brother is limited. This is already the emperor's kindness. The emperor really doesn't need to take this matter to heart. The concubine feels that she is very happy now, so happy that it is like a dream..."

The emperor hesitated and said: "The third child is now the crown prince. Are you afraid that people will gossip behind your back?"

Concubine Hui smiled and said, "I am proud of having such a capable son. What gossip is there for others to talk about? To be honest, although I have been kind to this son, I don't discipline him much. He can have what he is today, all thanks to the emperor's teaching..."

The emperor felt comfortable hearing this.Such a capable and filial son was taught by Mr. Dou.

After the time of You, ministers of the fourth rank and above in the court and members of the clan entered the palace one after another with their relatives.

Tonight's banquet will be held in the Taiji Hall. Concubines of the third rank and above in the palace can attend, but there are only a dozen people in total.

Empress Li has hated the emperor since Li Zhengqian became an official due to illness, and was hit even harder after the crown prince was appointed, and has been sick all the time.After the crown prince was established, Concubine Hui naturally rose in the harem.Coupled with the increasing favor of the emperor, and the fact that he has attracted the emperor's favorite concubine Fang for the past two years, for a while, Concubine Hui could almost compete with the empress in the harem.

Empress Li knew that if she didn't come out to the emperor's Qianqiu banquet, the emperor would definitely let Concubine Hui sit next to him to take her place, and then she would be a queen in name only.

In the Taiji Hall, the ministers who arrived early greeted each other, and they all saw the two calligraphy and paintings that had just been hung up.As long as people come in from the gate of the Taiji Hall, the huge character of longevity can be seen, and it is difficult not to pay attention to it.

People who participated in Mrs. Wang’s birthday at the beginning of the year had seen this hundred-year-old picture, but obviously it has not been fully spread. Whether it is the first time or the second time, they can’t help but marvel at the ingenuity of its conception.

Taking a closer look, it was indeed written by the Crown Princess to congratulate the emperor Qianqiu.The ministers and their relatives got together in twos and threes, and they all nodded in praise.

"The name of a talented concubine is indeed well-deserved!"

"This character looks round and majestic on the whole, but if you look at it carefully, every character in it is well-written! It's unexpected that the Crown Princess is proficient in so many fonts."

"Hey, that's not right, look, this looks like the word for Prince's Hall!"

"Oh, let me see!... Sure enough, this was written by the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess together. The Crown Prince really has an ingenious idea!"

"Oh, look at this birthday picture!"

At first, all the officials were attracted by the picture of hundred longevity, and then out of curiosity, they turned to the other side to see what kind of painting could be juxtaposed with the picture of hundred life.

I originally thought that the birthday chart would be the same, so how many new ideas can there be?Unexpectedly, it is really innovative, and this ingenuity is even more amazing.

Isn't the birthday star fairy in the painting the emperor?

We must know that the figure paintings of this era were mostly freehand, focusing on resemblance.But the picture in front of me is in a realistic style, which makes people feel immersive and believable.It seems that Tiangong is like that, with a bit of real texture in the ethereal, and the longevity fairy should also look like this, and it should be so leisurely.
