Chapter 758 Longevity Festival

   When the Empress Dowager said these words, Li Ma couldn't help but be amused.

   She suppressed a smile and said, "Your Highness, the Empress before she was born, went to the Empress. In the past, Empresses valued the emperor the most."

   Miss Qin really wants to give birth to a little prince, but the lady still doesn't know how happy she will be.

   "Girl Zhao finally got pregnant, she must be a little prince, otherwise..."

  What the Empress Dowager did not finish, Li Mammy naturally understood.

   Originally, there were only three princes in the period of the previous emperor, and it was even more outrageous in the emperor's generation. Neither the emperor nor An Wang has ever given birth to a son.

  There are so many beautiful concubines in Prince An's house, but none of them can conceive a child, because the emperor has no children yet, and Prince An does not dare to have children. This is common sense.

   How many people are staring at the position of the prince. In the early dynasty a few years ago, many courtiers suggested that the prince should be established as soon as possible, which put the emperor in a very embarrassing situation.

   As long as the emperor has a little prince, he will not be criticized.

"Don't worry, Niangniang, Miss Qin will definitely give birth to a little prince for the emperor and relieve the emperor's troubles. Miss Qin is a lucky girl. She can get pregnant under such circumstances. It can be seen that God is also protecting Miss Qin." The mother appeases the empress dowager.

  The Empress Dowager smiled: "I hope so. Zhao girl has always been a good candidate, and the Aijia is counting on her for this child."

   As for the other concubines in the harem, none of the concubines in the harem had a top job. Although Concubine Xian was canonized this time, she did not have the chance to serve in the bed.

   So she can only count on Zhao girl.

   is night, the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

   Zhang Jixiang saw that Xiao Ce was about to rest, and his heart became cold.

   The emperor is unwilling to see Miss Qin. Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, and the emperor is still unwilling to see Miss Qin, so it is impossible for Miss Qin to reconcile with the emperor in the near future.

  In Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao was also ready to rest.

   Baozhu served her to sleep, remembering that tomorrow is the emperor's longevity, and asked, "Do you want to send the birthday gift that the girl prepared for the emperor?"

   "I'll put it on hold for now, and I'll give it away when I have a chance in the future." Qin Zhao yawned.

   Seeing that she was tired, Baozhu stopped talking about it, and only went to the side to rest after the servant Qin Zhao fell asleep.

   Tomorrow is the Longevity Festival and the Lantern Festival. It is a big day celebrated by the whole country. It must be very lively.

  The girl doesn't care about the new year, but it's a pity that the girl can't show up on the emperor's birthday, right?

   In the early morning of the next day, the palace was decorated with lanterns and beams of joy, all because of the double festival. On such a big day, no one dares to neglect.

  The Lantern Festival also took a rest on this day. Xiao Ce rarely needed to get up too early, and he didn't need to go to the morning. Even the book was put away by Zhang Jixiang.

  Because he had nothing to do, he turned around in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, everyone had a cheerful smile on their faces, and they greeted him when they saw him.

   Seeing these smiling faces, his mood did not fluctuate.

   Just when he was in a trance, a message came from the Cihe Palace, saying that everything was ready.

   And this year's Longevity Festival will invite many royal relatives and relatives, of course, the ministers of the arms and shares, as well as the major wives, and the banquet will be held in the Hall of Preserving Harmony.

  The Queen Mother Guo single-handedly handled this matter, Xiao Ce, the birthday star, does not need to prepare anything, as long as someone is present.

   Nianyun talked about the general process of today's Longevity Festival, but found that Lord Longevity seemed a little dazed and absent-minded.

   "The Empress Dowager said that there may be some ill-considerations. If the emperor has any requests, feel free to mention it. The Empress Dowager attaches great importance to the emperor's birthday." Nianyun said again.

   "It's alright, don't worry about the Queen Mother's work, you can go back." Xiao Ce said, and then walked away.

   Zhang Jixiang hurriedly followed behind Xiao Ce.

   He could see that the emperor's absent-mindedness was because of Miss Qin. He clearly wanted to see Miss Qin, but the emperor was still hesitant.

   By the time the birthday banquet officially started, the Hall of Preserving Harmony was overcrowded.

   The part of congratulating the birthday is indispensable, not to mention that the concubines and concubines tried their best to show their faces in front of Xiao Ce, and others also wanted Xiao Ce to remember them.

   Wu Xirou stayed in Zhongcui Palace these days and didn't come out, just because she wanted to calm down Sifeng Po, who was the chef last time.

  Today is the Longevity Festival, of course she also has to prepare birthday gifts.

   But seeing so many people giving gifts, she was a little hesitant to join in the fun. After all, the small gift she prepared was a sachet, which she sewed by herself, and she couldn't take it out.

  This hesitation, until the afternoon she had no chance to give it away.

   I don't know if it was her illusion. She felt that Xiao Ce looked a little uninterested and was always flashing.

  Because she is now a virtuous concubine, the one with the highest rank among all the concubines, of course she is also sitting closest to Xiao Ce, so she can naturally see how Xiao Ce is feeling.

   The reason why Xiao Ce was absent-minded was probably because Qin Zhao was not in it?

  The world's subjects are celebrating Xiao Ce's birthday, but the person Xiao Ce cares about the most is not among them, which must be the reason for Xiao Ce's gaffe.

  The Longevity Festival starts in the morning and ends in the evening.

   Xiao Ce received a lot of gifts for this life span, but he was not interested in any of them.

   Seeing that the hour is not too early, and it will be the hour in another hour, Zhang Jixiang mustered up his courage and said to Xiao Ce, "Does the emperor want to go to Jinyang Palace for a walk?"

   Wu Xirou was not far from Xiao Ce. She had not had time to send out the birthday gift she had prepared. When she heard the Jinyang Palace, she slowed down.

   Xiao Ce didn't notice Wu Xirou chasing after him, he hesitated for a moment, and finally followed his heart and went to Jinyang Palace.

   He wanted to ask Qin Zhao if he remembered what he said last year. She said that the birthday present that was not given last year can be made up in the coming year.

   If he didn't meet Qin Zhao, he would never be reconciled.

   Inside the Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao yawned, she couldn't wait any longer, she was so sleepy.

   Baozhu saw Qin Zhao yawning frequently, so he stepped forward and said, "If the girl is tired, she should rest early."

   Qin Zhao looked at the hourglass, and when he saw this hour, he stopped insisting: "Well, go to sleep."

   She originally thought that if Xiao Ce came over, she would give the sachet to Xiao Ce as a remedy for last year's regret.

  Since Xiao Ce can't come, then I'll give it to him when I see Xiao Ce next time.

   She was about to go to bed when she heard familiar footsteps getting closer.

   "What's wrong with the girl?" Baozhu asked in confusion when she saw Qin Zhao standing still.

  Qin Zhao raised his brows lightly: "Suddenly I am refreshed again."

  Baozhu believed it to be true: "Does that girl want to read again?"

   "Listen to you." Qin Zhao picked up the book of words he hadn't read before and pretended to continue reading.

   After a while, Xiao Ce stepped inside, and when he saw Qin Zhaojiao was still reading, he fixed his gaze.

  Baozhu saluted Xiao Ce immediately, seeing Qin Zhao still sitting, he coughed twice: "Girl, the emperor is here."

   Qin Zhao just got up with a pretense and saluted intentionally.
