At the third hour of You, Sun Youwei appeared in front of the main hall of Xuanzheng Hall.

The summer banquet finally really kicked off, and people leaned over and knelt down, and the sound of my emperor long lived was like a surging tide.

Tonight, the empress wore a black wide-sleeved skirt with a golden sun embroidered on her left sleeve and a silver hook moon on her right. The floating light helped her slowly walk down the stone steps of Xuanzheng Hall and sat down at the imperial seat at the end of the peach forest.

Sun You said "flat" slightly, and everyone's "Xie Wuhuang" sounded in unison again.

The empress looked in a good mood tonight. It was obvious that during her interview in Xuanzheng Hall just now, the congratulatory words written by the ministers based on the words "Shen Du Wuying" made her happy.

Soon, the floating light surrounded the screen of the imperial seat, and when it came out, there were two more wine pots on the wooden tray in my hand - it was the reward of the imperial front tonight, the red wine rice.

The female official Fu Guang began to talk about the origin of the Piaowu. Feng Yan listened and glanced at the people present.

Both the Taiwei and Mrs. Shao did not come today... No, not only that, the Taiwei and Sikong of the three dukes did not arrive. These two were the initiators of the incident of kneeling on the palace gate on the Xia Sora.

When her eyes flew past the seat of the eldest princess's mansion, she was surprised to find that the eldest princess herself did not come tonight. Sitting there was a girl of the same age as Feng Xiaoqi - she was looking at herself, her eyes were a little curious and hostile.

After realizing that Feng Yan was looking at her, the girl immediately looked away and looked at the floating light.

Feng Yan leaned towards Wei Xingzhen, "Who is the girl in the Princess's Mansion?"

Wei Xingzhen glanced over there quietly.

He whispered, "It is the eldest princess' granddaughter, her majesty's granddaughter, and the monarch of Tangxi County Cen Lingju."

Feng Yan was a little stunned. She had a little impression of Cen Lingju. This girl was one year older than Qi, and her birthday was on the 16th day of the first lunar month.

The eldest princess's mansion celebrates her birthday every year on the 16th day of the first lunar month. Because His Majesty loves this granddaughter, the birthday banquet every year is extremely grand.

The daughter of the Feng family did not celebrate her birthday very much.

When I was a child, my parents didn't mention this matter. When I was a little older, the children were envious when they saw the birthday banquet in other people's mansions. They also asked about their birthdays, but the family didn't say anything.

As compensation, after worshiping ancestors in October every year, they will symbolically receive birthday gifts for that year, but they are incomparable to other noble girls. They are like thieves in their birthdays, and even if they are fake birthdays, they don’t want outsiders to know about them.

Earlier, Feng Xiaoqi would go with other sisters to congratulate Cen Lingju every year on the 16th day of the first lunar month. After returning, he pestered Li and praised Cen Lingju's birthday with her for being interesting and fun.

Li felt complicated when he heard this. Later, every year on the 16th day of the first lunar month, after Feng Xiaoqi came back from the Princess's Mansion, he would personally cook for Xiaoqi to cook something delicious.

Feng Yan saw it and one day asked Li, "Is Xiaoqi's birthday also on the 16th day of the first lunar month?"

Li quickly asked her to stop and reminded her not to mention it to anyone.

Feng Yan naturally wouldn't mention it, but at least she understood why every time she heard Xiaoqi praise Cen Lingju's birthday party, Li seemed a little distressed - because that day was Xiaoqi's birthday, but she didn't know it herself.

Later, the two girls grew up a little, and for some reason, Cen Lingju had a quarrel with Feng Xiaoqi. The two of them never interacted and didn't talk to each other when they met.

"It's still the same rule tonight," Sun Youwei's voice suddenly brought Feng Yan back to reality. "You each have a chance to nominate, and you can only mention others, not yourself. The nominee will bring your seat to the front."

As soon as the words were finished, the people below rushed to raise their hands and reported their friends or relatives' names one by one.

The nominees walked out one after another with their seats in hand, and this year there are all kinds of tricks.

A nest-shaped round mat with wooden rattan braids, and auspicious square mat with rag cut;

Some people say that their mat was fumigated on the medicine furnace for 774 to 49 days;

Someone also filled the pillow core with Yuexi Cuilan, a kind of tea that Sun Youwei loves the most, so sitting on the mat, you will smell a fragrance...

After hearing this, Sun Youwei immediately frowned in disgust, "...burn the piano and boil the crane."

There are also many fine products in it, such as the double-sided embroidery of the He family and the Jiang family, which uses peacock gold thread and moon brocade, and the weaving method is extremely delicate;

For example, the tortoiseshell carving of the Cen family, a complete piece of turtle shell was polished and refined. No matter how exquisite the carving skills were, the three or four feet long was the most precious thing in the world.

After several rounds, most of the people who prepared the seat carefully walked in front of the emperor. Everyone had speculation about who would fall tonight's wine rewards, and they were almost certain...

"Where is Lingju?" Sun Youwei suddenly laughed, "There is no reason why she doesn't come to join in this kind of excitement."

At the other end of the eldest princess's mansion, when Cen Lingju heard this, she stood up and answered, "Your Majesty, I'm here!"

As she said that, she hugged her seat and walked quickly towards Sun Youwei. If it weren't for the fact that before leaving the door, her grandmother repeatedly reminded her to "don't show off" and the female officer who followed her all the time, she would have gotten up long ago.

She is determined to win this wine today.

Everyone looked at the mat in Cen Lingju's hand and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

For some reason, the thin mat looked extremely dazzling under the lights, with satin shimmering and shining, but the texture did not look ordinary gems or glazed covers - its tassels drooped on all sides, moving with the wind, like the sunsets.

Sun Youwei focused a little, "Is this..."

"Return to Your Majesty, this is the mother-of-pearl mat forged by the son of the son," Cen Lingju spoke openly, and she smiled, "I took the shells from the East and South China Seas, first polished them into thin slices, pasted them on rice paper, then cut the paper into thin silk, and weaved them into fabric... The silk woven in this way has a changing appearance of radiance."

Everyone sighed slightly - this skill is hard to think of...

"I asked the craftsman that the mother-of-pearl is bright in color, and it is often wiped and fresh, and it will not fade even if stored for a hundred years." Cen Lingju held up the treasure mat in her hand, "I, I am willing to offer it to Your Majesty!"

Fu Guang stepped forward to take the treasure mat and then transferred it to Sun Youwei.

The empress narrowed her eyes slightly, gently turned the treasure mat in her hand, staring at its changing brilliance.

This is really a fresh thing...

During the meal, no one could take his eyes off the mother-of-pearl mat like Sun Youwei.

"Is there anyone else to come forward?" Sun Youwei asked in a low voice.
