Chapter 107 Birthday Banquet 3
Everyone, including the expression on Changsun Han's face, became a little surprised. This Miss Xia picked up a piece and threw it into the water without hesitation.
The corners of Xia Mengning's mouth slightly raised. Seeing that the golden cicada jade in the water slowly melted, she turned around and said, "In the emperor's words, the little girl who threw into the water just now is really golden cicada jade."
Changsun Han was stunned, and then laughed, "You woman, it's really interesting. It's just that you have thrown your reward into the gold water, so I have nothing else to reward you."
After Changsun Han said this, the people sitting below also laughed. Yu Ziran covered the corners of his mouth with a Juanpa, and elegantly covered a smile on his lips.
Xia Mengning just smiled faintly, but said happily, "If you go back to the emperor, the little girl is from the northern country. Although she is not knowledgeable, she is also willing to share the emperor's worries. The emperor's treasury has thousands of treasures, and she doesn't care about this golden cicada jade. If the little girl can turn off a piece of golden cicada jade in exchange for the emperor's love, the little girl is herself. I'm overjoyed."
Changsun Han didn't expect that Xia Mengning would say such a thing, but he was also shocked. He sighed, "It's reasonable. Since I got this real and fake golden cicada jade, I don't know what to do, but I don't understand the truth. No matter how good the golden cicada jade is, it's not good, but I But I just want to get the result without paying. It turned out that I didn't see through it.
Xia Mengning hurriedly knelt down: "The little girl is panicked. The emperor is the son of the real dragon. Naturally, he shoulders more responsibilities than ordinary people. The little girl just thinks selfishly from her own perspective, but the emperor cares about the people of the northern country. Everything is mainly based on the overall situation. The little girl admires the emperor's heart."
A compliment was so affectionate that Changsun Han couldn't help but feel much more comfortable. Wu smiled and said, "Mier Xia Cheng, it's really a tiger father without a dog. You, a clever daughter, is better than an ordinary man."
Xia Chuanyuan will stand up, "I dare not be an old minister."
Changsun Han Longyan was so happy that he immediately waved his hand and said, "You said, I will give you whatever treasure you want."
With such honor and favor, Yu Ziran, who was sitting under him, clenched his fist. Is this Xia Mengning her natural old enemy? Why do you always like to make a fool of yourself when competing with yourself again and again?
Thinking of this, Yu Ziran picked up the tea on the table and took a gentle sip. Anyway, Xia Mengning will let you be proud for a while, and there are times when you can't be proud.
Everyone looked at Xia Mengning, who was standing in the middle of the hall, and guessed what kind of treasure she would ask for?
Xia Mengning smiled and said, "If you go back to the emperor, the little girl doesn't want any treasures. Why don't the emperor give the rest of the golden cicada jade to the little girl?"
Changsun Han was stunned and then asked, "Do you really want this fake golden cicada jade?"
Xia Mengning nodded.
Changsun Han was a little puzzled. "You should know that I have never given such a reward to others since I ascended the throne. You can think about it."
Xia Mengning shook her head with a smile, and the light yellow beads on her temples were lined in the cloudy hair, which was very touching.
"If you return to the emperor, it is a great honor for the little girl to be able to enter the palace. This fake golden cicada jade will remind the little girl to always remember the emperor's heart, which will benefit the little girl a lot in the future."
Changsun Han listened and looked at Xia Mengning with a little approval. He smiled and said, "Well, I'm not arrogant or impatient at a young age. It's really extraordinary. In this way, you can take this golden cicada jade back, but you still need to reward it. As for what to be rewarded, you will know tomorrow."
Xia Mengning hurriedly knelt down Xie En. Wu saw it and said with a smile, "Woman, come here. I also have something for you."
Xia Mengning lowered her head and walked over. She saw Wu take off her green jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Xia Mengning's wrist. She smiled and said, "It's hard for you to have the intention to prepare the handwritten Buddhist scriptures for the Ai family. There is nothing to give to you. This jade bracelet was given to the Taizu family when the Taizu Emperor when the Ai family married Emperor Taizu. Today, I will give it to you. This good jade bracelet is still suitable for a good person.
Xia Mengning didn't want it, but Wu held her wrist firmly. Helpless, Xia Mengning had to kneel down and thank her.
At this time, everyone's eyes were straight. At today's banquet, everyone was full of energy to please the Empress Dowager. How could the Prime Minister's daughter steal the limelight at the beginning?
I was jealous, but who didn't want to please the celebrity in front of the emperor? Therefore, Xia Mengning thanked her and returned to her seat. Many of her daughter came over to talk to her. The envy and jealousy in her eyes and other emotions made Xia Mengning a little embarrassed.
Xia Chuanyuan was also very happy. While refusing other people's toast, he proudly looked at the place where the waiter Dong Jiancheng was. Seeing that the other party was drinking muffled wine, he couldn't help but be a little happy.
What about the princess's accompanying reading? His daughter has been loved by the empress dowager and the emperor.
Yu Ziran looked at a group of people around Xia Mengning. His eyes couldn't help but darken. Then he returned to his usual appearance and said to Wu with a obedient face, "Empress dowager, Ziran has never seen you love a woman so much. Ziran heard that Miss Xia's virtue and appearance are excellent. Today, the Empress Dowager is big. Shou, it's better to ask Miss Xia to dance for you. On the one hand, it's good to cheer you up, and on the other hand, it's another congratulatory gift for you.
After saying that, Yu Ziran asked loudly, "Miss Xia, would you like to dance for the Empress Dowager?"
Everyone didn't know why. They all looked at Xia Mengning. Xia Mengning stood up from the table and walked to the center and said, "The little girl's dancing skills are mediocre. I'm afraid it will make Princess Ziran unpleasure."
Xia Mengning is talking about Princess Ziran, but not the empress dowager. The implication is that the empress dowager has not opened her mouth. What are you worried about?
Wu's face faded. He seemed to look at Yu Ziran inadvertently, but he didn't say anything.
For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Xia Mengning gritted her teeth and knew that it was not a coincidence that she had shaved her foot today. She must have something to do with the princess in front of her.
Well, it's not that she can't dance. If she wants to see it, she will let her see it, so that she can break the idea that she shouldn't have in her mind.
Thinking of this, Xia Mengning lowered her head and said, "It's good that the Empress Dowager doesn't think the little girl's dancing is clumsy."
Wu Shi smiled and said, "You can dance casually, and you don't have to care."
This sentence gave Xia Mengning a reassurance pill. Yu Ziran's face turned white and white, and he didn't dare to raise his head.
"Please let the little girl go down and change her clothes."
Xia Meng was blessed and withdrew from the hall.
The eldest Sun Yun, who was sitting at the table, looked at it, and a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed up. When he looked at Yu Ziran, he had a murderous intention.
If he is not mistaken, Ning'er's feet are a little inconvenient, but it shouldn't be. Ning'er's martial arts skills are not good. How can she be framed? After thinking about it, someone took advantage of it. Changsun Yun's eyes darkened and got up and walked out of the hall.
