Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 165 The Queen's Birthday

In the evening, Luo Chengjing, who hadn't been to Linglong Pavilion for the past few days, came to Linglong Pavilion again. Seeing Lu Wanning who was dressed so neatly, Luo Chengjing smiled and said, "My concubine looks pretty good dressed like this."

Lu Wanning blushed a little shyly when she heard the words, and then said to Luo Chengjing boldly and mischievously: "Then why does the emperor think that the concubine's clothes don't look good?"

Luo Chengjing shook his head with a smile, took Lu Wanning's hand, and said, "Aifei looks good no matter how she dresses up."

Lu Wanning pouted, and said coquettishly: "The emperor will always talk nicely to coax his ministers and concubines."

But having said that, there was an undisguised sweet smile on Lu Wanning's face.

After Luo Chengjing pulled Lu Wanning to sit down, he glanced around the room, and then mentioned to Lu Wanning about moving the palace.

"This Linglong Pavilion is still a bit small. My concubine will move to Biyun Palace after a while. It will be convenient for me to visit my concubine at that time."

Lu Wanning was a little surprised to hear Luo Chengjing say that it would be a while, instead of moving immediately.

But then she heard Luo Chengjing explain: "Biyun Palace has not been inhabited for a long time. Although it looks good from the outside, many places inside need to be repaired. I have ordered the craftsmen to repair it as soon as possible."

Lu Wanning had never been in Biyun Palace, so she didn't know that many places in Biyun Palace had peeled off paint or had other problems.

However, Lu Wanning is not in a hurry to move to the palace, so she doesn't mind if she can't move into the new palace immediately.

She thought it would be best to wait for her to move to the new palace after the spring of next year.

The empress's birthday is on the third day of October, because it is not a whole birthday, so there is no big event.

On this day, the wives entered the palace to kowtow to the empress, and left after celebrating her birthday. At noon, the empress held a small banquet in Fengyi Palace for the concubines who came to congratulate her on her birthday.

Although it was a small banquet, it was very lively, with dance and music performances, as well as delicious food and wine. The only fly in the ointment might be that the emperor only asked Lian Yongwang to deliver a birthday gift to the empress at the beginning of the banquet. But he didn't appear at the empress's birthday banquet.

However, the birthday gift sent by the emperor was precious and rare enough, which made the Empress Empress look less ugly.

After everyone enjoyed the birthday presents that the emperor bestowed on the empress, the concubines in the harem presented their own birthday presents to congratulate the empress on her birthday.

The magnificent pair of plum vases that Lu Wanning prepared were very popular with the Empress.

Zhou Cairen's last birthday gift was not very outstanding, but it was quite satisfactory and not rude.

And Du Cairen mentioned by Zhou Cairen is really good at embroidery. On the kang screen she gave to the empress, there is a lifelike phoenix embroidered on both sides. The phoenix has a proud posture and gorgeous feathers. It was as if he wanted to flap his wings and fly away from the kang screen.

Looking at such a kang screen, Lu Wanning thought it was fortunate that Zhou Cairen had inquired in advance that Du Cairen would also send the kang screen to the empress, and he did not send the kang screen to the empress, otherwise the current situation would be disastrous for Zhou Cairen. It doesn't look good.

The empress's love for this kang screen is beyond words, because of this kang screen, the empress also has a special opinion of Du Cairen who gave the gift.

"Du Cairen is so ingenious, if you have time on weekdays, you can come to Fengyi Palace to talk with me."

When Du Cairen heard the words, he was flattered and said: "Thank you, Empress, for your attention, and my concubine will definitely come to talk with Empress often in the future."

After the concubines, the princes and princesses would also like to congratulate the empress, the aunt, on her birthday.

The first one must be the prince. The prince silently walked towards the empress, and said with a blank expression: "I wish the empress a happy birthday and a healthy body." Then, without waiting for the empress to say anything, he quietly retreated to the side.

The empress's face suddenly turned ugly, and she wanted to reprimand the prince, but considering that there were so many concubines in the palace, and it was her birthday banquet, and because concubine An interrupted her, the empress did not attack for the time being. He was planning to reprimand the crown prince after the birthday banquet was over. Was he putting on such an expression at her birthday banquet to touch her brow and make her lose face in front of everyone?
After the prince is the princess.

The third prince and the third princess were both young, and they were both hugged by the nanny, who congratulated the empress on their behalf.

The empress's birthday banquet lasted for more than an hour, and it was not until the empress's body couldn't hold on that it ended.

Lu Wanning drank a lot of wine at the birthday banquet, and nothing happened when she was in Fengyi Palace, but when she got out of Fengyi Palace and was blown by the wind, Lu Wanning became a little dizzy.

Seeing Lu Wanning's appearance, Qingzhi quickly stepped forward to help Lu Wanning walk to Linglong Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, after taking two steps, Lu Wanning said on a whim: "I won't go back now, let's go to the Imperial Garden and sit for a while."

Usually in such weather, she just wants to stay in the house and listen to the wind and read a book, and she doesn't want to go out, but today she drank a lot of wine, and her body is hot at the moment, which makes her think it's good to have a wind.

Qingzhi could only help Lu Wanning to walk to the imperial garden. Lu Wanning found a pavilion in the imperial garden and sat there blowing the cold wind for a long time. , got up to take Qingzhi back to Linglong Pavilion.

But as soon as Lu Wanning walked out of the pavilion, she ran into the prince who was in a hurry.

Behind the prince was only a young eunuch.

"His Royal Highness." Lu Wanning bowed to His Royal Highness.

The crown prince returned the salute, "Mrs. Concubine Zhuang."

"This is His Royal Highness?" Lu Wanning asked politely.

The prince was silent for a while, and instead of answering Lu Wanning, he said, "I have to leave first."

After speaking, the prince turned and left.

Lu Wanning looked at the back of the prince leaving and asked Qingzhi, "Do you think the prince seems to be in a good mood at the moment?"

Qingzhi said "Ah?"

The crown prince is clearly the same as before, with the same expressionless expression and the same silence. How did the master see that His Highness the crown prince is in a good mood at the moment?
Lu Wanning said, "It's a feeling."

Although the prince looked the same as before, Lu Wanning felt that His Highness the prince seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, and the prince seemed to be in a hurry when he left.

Lu Wanning was concentrating on thinking, when suddenly a gust of cold wind blew by, she shivered, Lu Wanning immediately couldn't care less about thinking about the mood of His Royal Highness.

"Let's go, go back." Lu Wanning said and hurriedly brought Qingzhi back to Linglong Pavilion.

When the two walked outside the door of Linglong Pavilion, they happened to meet Qing Dai who came out of the door.
