Gu Lan himself carefully prepared a very special gift for little Simu.
This gift may seem a bit childish for an adult, but for little Simu, it’s just right...
At this time, all the officials had finished saluting Mu Yuyan.
Starting from Sima Qin, officials one by one began to come up with various allusions and birthday wishes to little Simu.
Those long and verbose allusions made Gu Lan feel like he was back in college taking a literature and history class.
Even with his current cultivation level, he couldn't stop the sleepiness from coming.
This is why he yawned just now.
This is an instinctive reaction engraved in the blood and cannot be suppressed at all.
Gu Lan was not the only one like this.
Even little Simu is the same!
Little Simu, who had been full of energy since birth, actually fell asleep in Mu Yuyan's arms.
Of course, even if she fell asleep, little Simu still held a carefully chewed spiritual fruit tightly in her hand.
It looked like someone was snatching the spiritual fruit from her in a dream.
Mu Yuyan's beautiful face was calm and unhurried, her expression never changed at all, and her demeanor of the Nine-Fifth Master never dropped even a bit.
She has long been used to such scenes.
The officials are eloquent, and allusions from past and present can be picked up one by one without repeating them for a long time.
Just when Gu Lan was about to close his eyes, a tall military general stood up.
"Your Majesty, I am a rough man and I don't know how to speak great truths! I... Hehe, I think the little princess is very cute. I hope she will always be happy!"
"My lords, please stop dropping your book bags. If you keep talking, the little princess won't be able to bear it, even I will have my head exploded by your words!"
As soon as these words came out, all the generals in the field burst into laughter.
All the civil servants shook their heads helplessly.
There was nothing they could do against these generals who were illiterate, some of whom could not even read a few Chinese characters.
They are good at quoting scriptures and arguing with arguments, but will the other party reason with you?
If you continue to reason, I'm afraid a fist as big as a casserole will fall on you.
In Dajing, there are living examples.
Sure enough, after the military general finished speaking, the remaining civil servants consciously shortened the number of words in their blessings.
After the etiquette process was completed, Mu Yuyan took out a spiritual fruit that Gu Lan had prepared for her in advance.
"Guoguo!"
The empress' eyes were gentle, she called in a low voice, and softly said the words that the snack in her arms usually muttered most.
Almost as soon as the spirit fruit was taken out, little Simu suddenly woke up.
At the same time, the two little fleshy hands instinctively grabbed the spirit fruit in Mu Yuyan's hand with lightning speed.
The speed is so fast that it puts many generals who have practiced martial arts for many years to shame.
...
The ceremony of catching Zhou is about to begin, and little Simu can only have the energy to complete the ceremony of catching Zhou after eating the spirit fruit.
Mu Yuyan still knows how to coax children.
Although I learned this from my husband.
Bah! Bah!
Xiao Simu took a few mouthfuls and found out that only the core of the spirit fruit was left, which was extremely clean.
This speed is faster than the speed of grabbing the spiritual fruit just now.
Your Royal Highness, the little princess... is truly gifted.
Previously, a civil servant who praised Xiao Simu the most harshly swallowed secretly.
He thought that the little princess was extraordinary, but he didn't expect that the little princess... was so extraordinary. He could kill a spirit fruit in three strokes, five divided by two, it was really extraordinary!
Mu Yuyan gently placed little Simu on the long table.
"Mumu, after eating Guoguo, you must be obedient... Look over there and pick something you like."
Little Simu tilted her little head and looked at the dazzling array of Zhou Zhou items on the long table, with curiosity in her eyes.
In addition to various treasures, the most popular items on the table are various books.
Most of the treasures were prepared by military officers, and most of the books were prepared by civilian officials.
The most eye-catching ones are naturally the Feng Ni Dynasty exquisite tangram ball and the rare music box from the Western Regions.
Both items are made by skilled craftsmen and look brilliant and eye-catching.
Seeing little Simu crawling towards those two items, Taifu Su Hua and Master Zhang Qingwei could not sit still.
"Little princess, this is a picture version of the national governance policy that I have prepared with great pains. There are many rare and exotic animals, customs and people on it. Look here..."
Tutor Su Hua took out a very thick book, which was not only densely packed with text, but also came with many illustrations!
These illustrations are drawn vividly and are colored with special pigments, which shows that they are very thoughtful.
This is what he has done with his own hands in his spare time in the East Palace over the years.
"These pictures are all the customs and customs of my country of Dajing. The master is really attentive!"
"If the little princess reads this book and becomes an adult, she will surely be as wise as Her Majesty the Empress in the future!"
"The master is sincere, I am not as good as him!"
All the officials in the audience were filled with emotion when they saw the text and illustrations in the book.
"Your Highness, come and take a look, it's very beautiful..."
Su Hua held up the book and lay on the table to slowly seduce it.
He didn't believe that a little milk baby could not be interested in colorful pictures.
Little Simu's eyes were indeed attracted...but not by the books and illustrations, but by Su Hua's white beard!
"Ouch! Ouch! Little princess... little princess, please don't pull my beard, let go quickly, let go quickly!"
Su Hua didn't expect little Simu to be so strong.
He was reluctant to use his true energy, so this ridiculous scene appeared.
On the side, Zhang Qingwei showed an expression of gloating.
When Xiao Simu saw Su Hua yelling, he instantly lost interest in the beard and didn't care about the national policy.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Qingwei immediately stepped forward and took out his Zhou Zhou items.
"Your Highness, look over here."
"This is the Wanhua Mirror from our Jixia Academy...a replica of the Wanhua Mirror."
"You can see all things in the world, you can see the sun, the moon and the stars, you can see the changes in time, it's very magical."
An old man left, and another old man came.
Little Simu tilted her head and looked at the mirror.
When the officials saw this, they couldn't help but look over.
The Wanhua Mirror is the most precious treasure of Jixia Academy. It is the only one among the world's cultural artifacts that has the hope of being promoted to the most precious treasure of Xuantian!
Zhang Qingwei would naturally not give such a treasure to a future imperial master.
But an imitation, once produced, is quite valuable!
Everyone looked and saw in the mirror, mountains, rivers, sun and moon, day and night, alternating at an extremely fast speed, presenting a magical scene of a fleeting moment.
"Master Zhang is worthy of being the master of Jixia Academy. He can actually imitate the Wanhua Mirror. Even if it is not powerful, it must be among the rare treasures!"
"This mirror contains everything in the world, and it also contains time. It's really magical!"
"I am lucky enough to see such a rare treasure today. If I can go to Jixia Academy to see the real Wanhua Mirror in the future, I will die without regrets."
Some elderly civil servants expressed emotion.
Beside Mu Yuyan, Gu Lan silently shook his head.
Do these officials in Dajing... really know what children like?
That exquisite Qiqiao ball is clearly the deluxe version of Luban lock.
The music box is not unusual, but the workmanship is very exquisite.
State governance can be regarded as an advanced encyclopedia.
There is also the Wanhua Mirror, which just infinitely accelerates the images in the shadow-engraved stone.
Will Little Nipples like these things?
Gu Lan shook his head, a little disappointed.
Because of these things, my precious daughter will not be interested at all.
