Chapter 480 gift
Chapter 480 480. Gifts
“Why should my sister be so polite? I just want to see you at the palace banquet and why would you go all the way?”
Liu, who was already a noble concubine, was as low-key and meek as ever, and said to the queen.
"Etiquette cannot be discarded. The empress is the master of the harem, and the concubines should come to express their gratitude."
The Queen became increasingly satisfied with Concubine Liu's performance.
So he gave the palace people around him a look, and they immediately stepped forward to help Concubine Liu up.
"I heard that at this birthday banquet, there was a gift specially sent from Qingzhou. I don't know what it is. Xiaoliu is still hiding it, and I didn't even tell me what it was."
The queen mentioned something, and Concubine Liu continued following her words.
"It's probably a specialty of Qingzhou. The child is very interested."
"That's right. Among the sisters in the harem, I think you are the luckiest. But now that Xiaoliu is older, the palace is almost done. I think I can choose the princess. This princess Ah, you have to choose someone who is gentle and sweet. It is better not to mess with the complicated people in the family. This will prevent you from knowing if you get into trouble later."
On the surface, these words were to give Liu Guifei advice, but in fact, they were warning them not to form gangs.
It seems that it is impossible to choose a princess with a strong family background for him.
Concubine Liu pretended not to understand, looked at the queen and said.
"Your Majesty is your legitimate mother, and you have met many good people. I am in the palace every day, but you know very little about the things outside. Why don't you choose one for Xiaoliu? I think it will be good for you. .”
"Oh, how can this be so easy to decide? If I like it but Xiaoliu doesn't like it, wouldn't it be a delay for the two of them?"
“Don’t worry, Madam, Xiao Liu always listens to the words of Madam and Prince. As long as it’s your choice, Madam, Xiao Liu and I will like it.”
"In this case, I will pay more attention to Xiaoliu and take a good look at him."
“Thank you very much for your love.”
In this coming and going, the marriage of the sixth prince was properly arranged.
It’s a pity that the two people speaking at this moment have no idea what will happen next.
After struggling for a long time, the birthday party finally started in the evening.
Di Qi is in good spirits today, and his eyebrows look much more relaxed.
The queen sat on his left side, Concubine Liu Guifei sat on his right side, the other concubines sat at the bottom of the left side, and on the right side were the prince and his relatives.
This palace banquet, in terms of specifications, is just a family banquet, but for Concubine Liu, it was a bit too grand.
The sixth prince looked at his mother and concubine who was sitting on pins and needles and trying to keep herself calm. He felt a little disgusted with the queen in his heart.
Even though the mother-in-law had already compromised, she still arranged it like this. Why didn't everyone in the harem become jealous?
When the palace banquet is over, I don’t know how long my mother and concubine will be gossiped about.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the prince beside him. He was eating and drinking happily.
He has been handling government affairs these days, so his vanity must have reached its extreme.
Pick up a glass of palace wine and drink it in one gulp.
Enjoy this short happy time. Soon, everything that comes with the position of prince will come to an end.
When he becomes a defeated general, he would like to see how the queen and the prince behave.
The song and dance ended, and Emperor Qi obviously still had more to say.
Even a blind man could see the flirtatious look one of the dancers gave him. Emperor Qi didn't know what was wrong with him these days, and his mind was filled with all these things. At this moment, the queen has no mind to care about these women who want to climb up the ladder and the anxious Emperor Qi.
Anyway, it won't be long before they are just "objects" that will be sent to be buried with them, so why get angry.
At the palace banquet, everyone had their own agendas, and the only one who drank wine seriously was the prince.
"Sixth brother, I heard that you brought a big guy here from Qingzhou this time, saying it was a gift for the imperial concubine. I wonder what it is? You hid it tightly before, but now I'm afraid it's time to show it to everyone. It’s an eye-opener.”
When the sixth prince heard this, he smiled and immediately said to the prince.
"His Royal Highness is really well informed. That thing is not expensive at all, but it is unique to Qingzhou. I thought that my mother and concubine have been in the palace for many years, and seeing this thing can relieve my homesickness."
After saying that, he patted the person, and soon someone brought up the big wooden box covered with brocade steps.
Everyone became curious. They had seen this precious thing many times. They had never heard of this unique object in Qingzhou, so everyone was looking forward to it.
The sixth prince glanced over, and one of the people carrying the box lifted the brocade cloth.
The wooden box was immediately opened, and the gift that was supposed to be inside disappeared. Instead, a man who had been knocked unconscious had his hands and feet tied up.
Surprise turns into fright?
How can a son give his mother a gift from a wild man who doesn’t know his identity?
The sixth prince's smile hadn't even fallen from his face when he was shocked by the scene in front of him. How could it be possible?
Immediately stepped forward to check. When he saw the face of the man in the box, he immediately panicked.
How did he appear here?
how come!
who is it!
At this moment, he wished that time could go back and this scene would never happen. Unfortunately, how could others allow it, especially the concubines who were jealous of Concubine Liu's canonization just now, and one or two of them started talking about it.
"Why would the prince give a man to the concubine? This is against the common ethics."
“Yo, who is this man? He has so much face!”
“Who knows? Your Majesty, please get out of the way and let us see what this man looks like! Will he live forever if he eats it?”
The words were getting harder and harder to hear. At this moment, the sixth prince changed his elegant demeanor before and looked at the talkative concubines, his eyes wishing to breathe fire.
Those people were so frightened that they shut up, and a few of them looked at Emperor Qi without giving up.
Di Qi was confused and angry at the moment, so he continued.
“Come here, drag that man out and show me who he is?”
"yes!"
Even if the sixth prince wanted to stop him, it would be useless. He was quickly thinking of a countermeasure. How about calling him his uncle?
Anyway, the matter with my nephew Uncle Xiao is not nothing.
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly saw the men carrying the box pulling out swords from the bottom of the box and shouting loudly.
“Dog Emperor, take your life!”
It was so fast that he rushed to the front of Emperor Qi.
There were only two people beside him, the Queen and Concubine Liu. How could they possibly stop him? They both shouted and rushed to protect him.
The sword was about to hit Emperor Qi's head, but the prince blocked it with a wooden table.
This wooden table is made of real material. If he hadn't stimulated his potential in the moment of crisis, he probably wouldn't be able to lift it up at this moment.
