"I am naturally happy." Fu Yinshuang said perfunctorily.
Xiao Che stared at Fu Yinshuang for a long time, as if he could see through the perfunctory look in her eyes.
At this moment, the emperor and the empress walked in, surrounded by their chamberlains, and the Huaqing Palace suddenly became quiet.
After the emperor and the queen were seated, everyone present saluted the emperor and the queen.
In the past two years, the treasury has been in deficit, and the emperor has always advocated frugality. Even on his birthday, he did not indulge in extravagance and waste.
After sitting down, Fu Yuanxiao secretly looked up at the emperor and saw that his face was not very good, and there was a faint black color between his eyebrows.
She leaned into Xiao Ji's ear and whispered: "Father, there will be a bloody disaster tonight."
When Xiao Ji heard this, he raised his head and looked at his father on the dragon throne, and then at Fu Yuanxiao, who saw a serious look on her face. After experiencing these things, he knew that she would not joke.
Then it's true.
Father, nothing can happen now, otherwise everything will be in chaos and his plan will not be able to wait.
Xiao Ji pondered for a while, then leaned into Fu Yuanxiao's ear and asked, "Do you have a talisman?"
Fu Yuanxiao nodded, "Yes."
Xiao Ji then said: "When I present my birthday gift later, you put the talisman in your purse and give it to your father, saying that it can ensure your father's safety in case of a bloody disaster."
Xiao Ji said as he took out a purse from his arms and handed it to Fu Yuanxiao.
After Fu Yuanxiao listened, he immediately understood the meaning of Xiao Ji's words. He wanted to use her stupidity to remind the emperor that no matter what the outcome, she was a stupid person, and behind her were the Fu family, King Yu, King Chen, and the emperor. They won't say anything.
"I see."
At this time, it was the turn of the third prince Xiao Minshou to give gifts.
"Father, this is the Shiquan Dabu Pill that I specially asked someone to make. It can prolong your life and strengthen your body every year." Xiao Min strongly recommended the elixir in her hand, almost touting it as an elixir.
The emperor glanced at the Shiquan Dabu Pill in Xiao Min's hand, waved his hand, and said without saying a word, "You can keep it for yourself."
Xiao Min smiled and said: "Father, this is specially prepared for my father. How can I keep it for myself? If I take it tonight, my father will be radiant tomorrow and look ten years younger all of a sudden."
Fu Yinshuang looked at Xiao Min. She didn't know which charlatan had fooled her, so she offered a leg-stretching pill to the emperor, saying it was like an elixir.
Tsk tsk, I was deceived badly enough.
The emperor's patience was exhausted by Xiao Min, and he said coldly: "Take your Shiquan Dabu Pill and get out."
The smile on Xiao Min's lips disappeared instantly, and she knelt down quickly before exiting.
Xiao Ji looked at Fu Yuanxiao and stretched out his hand towards her. Fu Yuanxiao put her hand in his palm and stood up with him and walked to the center of the hall.
Xiao Ji said: "Father, this is a birthday gift from my son to my father. I hope he likes it."
Eunuch Li stepped forward and took the scroll from Xiao Ji's hand with both hands, turned towards the emperor, and then presented it with both hands, "Your Majesty."
The emperor glanced at the scroll in Eunuch Li's hand and ordered: "Open it."
"No." Eunuch Li untied the string and slowly opened the scroll.
The emperor looked at the scroll in Eunuch Li's hand. As Eunuch Li opened it, a landscape painting came into view. He was startled and quickly recognized the painting as a painting by Wang Zhichen.
"Bring it over and show me."
"No." Eunuch Li stepped forward and handed the painting to the emperor.
The emperor looked at the painting in front of him carefully and found that it was an authentic work, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
Xiao Ji noticed the change in the emperor's expression and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
Fu Yuanxiao took out a purse from his sleeve and presented it with both hands, "Father, I saw that my father will suffer a bloody disaster tonight. This is a talisman to keep my father safe."
Fu Yinshuang had just picked up a piece of pastry and before she could put it into her mouth, she heard this sentence and was stunned. She raised her head and looked at Fu Yuanxiao, only to see that she was really holding something in her hand.
What happened to Xiaoxiao tonight?
The emperor is indeed in a bloody disaster tonight, and it has nothing to do with them.
How does Xiaoxiao know?
Is it because I'm a fool and am talking nonsense?
Fu Yinshuang couldn't help but worry, what if the emperor blamed Xiaoxiao?
Everyone present looked at Fu Yuanxiao with different expressions, some were shocked, some were mocking, and some were gloating about his misfortune.
The emperor's face looked a little ugly when he heard this. If a fool said such words at his birthday banquet, anyone would be unhappy.
Xiao Ji said: "Father, Xiaoer is doing this because he is worried about his father. I hope my father will forgive me."
Xiao Che stood up, walked around the table to the center of the hall, saluted and bowed, "Father, my fourth sister-in-law is like a child. Father, don't take it to heart that children speak without restraint."
Fu Yuanxiao said seriously: "Father, what I said is true. Father is really in a bloody disaster. This can keep us safe."
The Queen had long heard that Fu Yuanxiao was a fool and had seen him several times. He was indeed stupid and different from ordinary people.
Today, they actually said that the emperor suffered a bloody disaster?
The queen turned her head and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, Princess Yu's talk was unreasonable and ruined the emperor's mood. The death penalty can be avoided, but she should be punished severely to serve as a warning to others."
Xiao Ji glanced at the queen, and a shadow flashed in his eyes. He looked away and looked at the emperor, pleading: "Father, although Xiao'er is stupid, she is worried about the father and has no ill intentions."
Xiao Che said: "Father, the fourth sister-in-law is different from ordinary people and cannot be generalized. I hope that Father will have mercy on her."
Fu Yinshuang couldn't sit still. Even as a concubine, she still had to plead for Xiaoxiao.
She stood up and knelt in the center of the hall: "Your Majesty, Xiaoxiao is just worried about the Emperor and has no bad intentions. I beg the Emperor for mercy."
The emperor glanced at Xiao Che and others, then looked at Fu Yuanxiao, and saw her beautiful peach blossom eyes staring at him.
When I first saw Fu Yuanxiao, I felt that her eyes were clear and agile.
He had only seen that look on children.
"Forget it, she is different from ordinary people, so naturally she doesn't have other people's bad intentions."
The emperor paused here and waved his hand, "Everyone, please sit down."
Fu Yinshuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the emperor was not a tyrant and would attack indiscriminately.
Fu Yinshuang followed Xiao Che back to the seat and sat down.
Fu Yuanxiao refused to leave, but still said seriously: "Father, you haven't accepted my peace talisman yet. Although my peace talisman is a bit ugly, you should be prepared for any trouble. Father, are you right? "
Fu Yinshuang's buttocks were not even hot from sitting, but when she heard this sentence, her heart that had just fallen to the ground started to rise again.
What is Xiaoxiao doing?
The emperor pondered for a moment and ordered: "Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li immediately understood, bowed and walked down, taking the purse from Fu Yuanxiao's hand, then turned back and held up his hands, "Your Majesty."
The emperor glanced at the purse in Eunuch Li's hand. It was ordinary and ordinary. It was also made of silk.
He picked it up and took a look at the pattern on the purse, feeling that it looked familiar. He then opened the purse, put his long fingers in, and found that there was something inside. When he took it out, he found that it was a talisman.
Good night, babies!
