Chapter 741： Shou Li

When the voice fell, the queen mother walked in from one corner, and Princess Fuqing and the fourteenth princesses supported her from left to right.

When Emperor Jingming saw that the Queen Mother had arrived, he got up and greeted her, and the Queen silently followed.

"Mother, please slow down." Emperor Jingming reached out to help the queen mother, the fourteenth princess happily retreated to the side to let the place out.

The actions of Emperor Jingming made the Queen Mother very much in her heart, and smiled: "The emperor doesn't have to be like this, the family can still walk."

Emperor Jingming smiled and said: "Of course the queen is healthy, but the son wants to help you."

Seeing Emperor Jingming cautiously supporting the Queen Mother to the high platform, everyone in the palace felt emotional: The emperor has really been filial to the Queen Mother for decades.

Those elder princes and old lords who were getting old couldn't help nodding their heads, secretly envying the good fortune of the queen mother.

Even in a normal family, the adopted son's true filial piety to the foster mother is worthy of praise, not to mention that the person is the emperor.

When a woman can be a queen mother, this life is worthless. I don't know the blessings of several lifetimes.

The Queen Mother walked up to the high platform with countless admiring eyes, supported by Emperor Jing Ming, and sat down slowly, looking down.

All the people in the temple stood up and saluted, saying: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother for the future--"

The queen mother nodded slightly, waited for the scene to calm down, and smiled: "It's all a family, you don't have to be restrained, just feel free."

The Queen Mother spoke, and everyone took their seats.

With the sound of dancing music, a team of dancers in colorful costumes came out gracefully, and began to dance barefoot on the brocade. The silver bells tied to the ankles dinged and rang together with the music, making the atmosphere in the hall gradually rise.

The queen mother smiled at the queen and nodded: "I made the queen bother."

The queen toasted and said: "It is an honor for my daughter-in-law to celebrate her mother's birthday. I only wish that the mother and the queen will not grow old and have the present every year."

The queen mother also raised her glass, slightly touching her lips.

Next, the emperors and nobles listed in the arranged order to congratulate the Queen Mother.

First, the same generation as the Queen Mother, and then the generation of Emperor Jingming. When these are all over, there will be grandchildren.

Among the grandchildren, a few princes naturally came out first to celebrate their birthday, and the princes of this year are more eye-catching than in previous years.

Without him, the position of the prince vacant is a major event that everyone is staring at.

The first to stand out is the Qin Wang and his wife.

King Qin was the adopted son of Emperor Jingming. Although he was hopeless with the throne, he would rank ahead of other princes on such occasions.

Many people glanced past King Qin before drinking.

It is useless to be in the front row, anyway, the position of the prince has nothing to do with the King of Qin.

The Qin couple presented a pair of white jade birthday peaches to the Queen Mother.

Among the countless rare and exotic treasures, a pair of white jade shou peaches is not expensive, but it is better than the exquisite workmanship. Shou Tao looked like it was picked from the branch.

The queen mother smiled and accepted it with two praises.

Then came King Qi.

The King Qi presented him with a copy of the scriptures himself. What is rare is that the scriptures are actually overseas secret scriptures, and many monks in the Great Zhou Dynasty have not even read them.

The queen mother naturally happily accepted.

Yu Jin looked at Jiang Si across the aisle, his eyes full of contempt.

The fourth child is indeed a poor ghost who spends his wife's dowry, and the birthday gift to the queen mother is a broken scripture book.

I personally copied it. In the final analysis, it didn't cost money. As for the overseas truths, maybe the fourth child secretly memorized it after reading it. Turning his head and silently, it would cost nothing anyway.

Tired of being alone, it is naturally not pleasing to look at, Yu Jin expresses his utter contempt for such opportunistic tricks like Wang Qi.

Jiang Si smiled back and blinked softly.

A Jin jokes that King Qi didn't want to think about who paid Erniu's salary...

Xu Shi had a sharp heart, and Yu Jin understood her meaning in the blink of an eye from Jiang Si, and her handsome face turned black immediately.

What's wrong with his spending on the second cow's salary? He is the one who pulled the big cow!

The next gift from Wang Lu and his wife was not fancy at all, but a pair of half-foot-high red corals.

It's not fancy, because red coral is the most common gift, but in truth, this pair of red corals is the most realistic, at least much more expensive than Baiyu Shoutao and the scriptures.

It was the turn of King Shu and his wife to appear, and the birthday gift presented to the Queen Mother was quite satisfactory, and the Queen Mother also accepted it with a smile.

King Shu returned to his seat with some regrets.

He could have given a birthday gift to the emperor's grandmother, but the concubine asked him to retreat temporarily, so he had to choose a low-key.

Concubine Zhuang, who was sitting in the corner of the high platform, nodded slightly, very pleased that her son could listen to her.

Then Yu Jin and Jiang Si got up from their seats and walked to the court to congratulate the Queen Mother.

"The grandson (grand-in-law) congratulates the emperor and grandmother for the future."

A small and delicate box was taken by the servant, opened and presented to the mother's back.

Lying in the box is a string of agarwood beads.

The moment the Queen Mother saw the gift, her pupils suddenly shrank, and her complexion changed slightly.

Emperor Jingming was most concerned about the Queen Mother. Seeing that the Queen Mother looked different, he asked Yu Jin curiously: "Old Qi, why do you want to give your emperor grandmother prayer beads bracelets?"

The queen mother had a string of agarwood beads, which she often wore on weekdays. Emperor Jing Ming was very impressed with that string of beads.

When Yu Jin heard Emperor Jingming's question, he said openly: "The son thinks the emperor grandmother will like it."

Emperor Jingming smiled: "Such a rosary—"

He wanted to say that the Queen Mother had a bunch of similar things, and kept staying, but he swallowed the rest of the words before speaking, and his eyes drifted towards the Queen Mother's wrist subconsciously.

At some point, the rosary on the queen mother's wrist was gone.

Strange, when did the Queen Mother take down the rosary?

It was announced that the old Qiji was under the queen's name that day, and he obviously saw it when he went to inform the mother.

These doubts flashed in the heart of Emperor Jingming, and the queen mother said: "Such a rosary is indeed very popular, you are really interested."

Yu Jin looked up at the Queen Mother, smiled slightly and said, "You like it."

After all, retreat like Jiang.

The subsequent offerings continued, but the Queen Mother's heart was filled with waves because of the rosary.

And also Jing Mingdi was the same.

It's just a string of rosary beads, and there is no need to pay attention to it, but how can the mother show a strange face? Is there a reason why you don't wear the previous rosary after you become a mother?

For some reason, thinking about the time when the Queen Mother took off the agarwood beads bracelet, Emperor Jing Ming was inexplicably uncomfortable, but this gloom was immediately dissipated by the excitement in the hall.

The banquet continued, just as the atmosphere grew stronger.

The people who had a little drunkenness became less restrained and began to toast frequently.

Different from being ignored in the past, there are many people surrounding Yu Jin today. Obviously, the status of the queen's son makes him different from before.

King Xiang could see fire in his eyes, and I don't know how many times he was thinking: If his father elected him that day, it would be him that these people would cheat today!

One hand patted his shoulder lightly.

When King Xiang turned his head, he saw King Qi raise his glass: "Big brother, brother respects you."

King Xiang drank a cup of wine and walked to Yu Jin.
